Win Server 2016 - PostgreSQL 15 and 16 Install Errors - Failed to Load SQL Modules into Database Clusters
*Note that PG10 was installed on this server.

*Note that PG10 was installed on this server. Prior to installing the new version, I stopped and disabled the PG10 service.*
Here's the OS version of the server in question:
I used the EDB installers linked from the main postgres site: https://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/
I was unable to install PG16 on a client's system due to the error:

Failed to Load SQL Modules into Database Clusters
which occurred near the end of installation. I have installed PG16 on Win10 and Win11 before (as well as some other Win Server OS's on client systems - but I'm not sure exactly what server versions) and have not run into this issue before.
After I clicked through the error and the installation completed, the postgres service refused to start with Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly
I tried a lot of suggestions I found online (many from this post )
Here's a full list of what I tried:
- Rebooting the server
- Installing as admin
- Installing outside of the Program Files folder (C:\PostgreSQL)
- Creating the PostgreSQL and data folders prior to install and giving full permissions to: User Group, Admin Group and the NETWORK SERVICE user.
- Setting the service user to Local System, and also the local admin.
- Using the default password ("postgres") in the installer
- Explicitly setting the locale to English US in the installer
I also tried to manually patch the install with some commands I found online:
(initialize the DB cluster)
initdb -D "C:\PostgreSQL\16\data" -U postgres -A password --pwfile=passwd.txt
(simulate postgres service run)
"C:\PostgreSQL\16\postgres.exe" -D "C:\PostgreSQL\16\data"
The command to init the DB succeeded, but when I tried the second command (simulate service), I immediately got a generic Windows "PostgreSQL has stopped working" error. This is what the event viewer showed:
> Faulting application name: postgres.exe, version: 16.0.4.0, time stamp: 0x66b37331 Faulting module name: ucrtbase.dll, version: 10.0.14393.7426, time stamp: 0x66f600f9 Exception code: 0xc0000409 Fault offset: 0x000000000006c9e8 Faulting process id: 0x1b38 Faulting application start time: 0x01dbfc1356b9793c Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\16\bin\postgres.exe Faulting module path: C:\Windows\System32\ucrtbase.dll Report Id: c29be876-cf53-4689-b6df-459d3bc7df35 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID:
Searching online suggested this might be due to issues with the server's runtime libraries, but this was starting to go way over my head. We tried installing PG15 and got the same errors.
Eventually we tried going all the way back to PG12, and that worked. I know postgres made significant changes between 12 and 13. PG12 is EOL now, so it's not ideal to use that instead of a newer version, but this was the latest version we could get working. We will likely keep it as is for now, but I would appreciate any further insights or troubleshooting tips in case we decide to revisit the upgrade, or in case this happens with another client. Any help is much appreciated!

No such error occurs on my UAT system. They're all running SQL Server 2017 (14.0.3162.1), and they were all installed with the same feature set. The UAT machine is Windows 10, while the prod servers are Windows Server 2016.
Which components/features specifically need to be installed such that I can create a maintenance plan?

My company has grown from 50 SQL Servers to over 200 overnight in a merger acquisition. HELP!
My questions are:
- How can I perform CU updates on this many servers and still have a life and keep my sanity? SCCM doesn't seem to be able to perform CU updates.
- Has anyone else been able to perform CU updates on 100s of servers?
- What are some other alternatives?

I am trying to install
parray_gin
in PostgreSQL 10 on macOS, but I can't get it to build.
I'm running pgxn install parray_gin
. This first gave me a missing stdio.h
error, so I installed the xcode command line tools, and now it's complaining about
/Library/PostgreSQL/10/include/postgresql/server/utils/pg_locale.h:19:10:
fatal error: 'unicode/ucol.h' file not found
After some Googling it appeared I needed to install an extra library, which I did through brew install icu4c
This printed:
This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local,
because macOS provides libicucore.dylib (but nothing else).
If you need to have this software first in your PATH run:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/icu4c/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/icu4c/sbin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
For compilers to find this software you may need to set:
LDFLAGS: -L/usr/local/opt/icu4c/lib
CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/icu4c/include
But it didn't change a thing and I have no idea how to pass /usr/local/opt/icu4c/include
to pgxn

where is your vendor location from Composer?

My *vendor* directory from Composer is in the Home directory of my Linux user account. And I am very allergic to loading files into projects with something arbitrary as the user account name in the directory-link.
Preferably, I'd like the *vendor* directory much closer to the web-directory (but not in public of course).
What is making me very insecure is that in most examples I see from others, is that they do have the vendor directory at a much more convenient place and closer to the public-server-root.
I googled all night on how to move my vendor folder, and I didn't find anything in plain English that I could understand. I guess I am not the smartest. And Linux is moslty headaches and anger for me.
And I am surprised by the outcome of my *vendor* directory location as I did what most tutorials showed.
cd /var/www
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer ', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'dac665fdc30fdd8ec78b38b9800061b4150413ff2e3b6f88543c636f7cd84f6db9189d43a81e5503cda447da73c7e5b6') { echo 'Installer verified'.PHP_EOL; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'.PHP_EOL; unlink('composer-setup.php'); exit(1); }"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
*Most likely, you want to put the composer.phar into a directory on your PATH, so you can simply call composer from any directory (Global install), using for example:*
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
I did look at composer.json. But I found nothing on how to re-link a vendor directory in that file, as I do not care if that file stays in the User home dir.
Anyone with words of wisdome, advice, or plain old telling me what I did wrong?

This might sound like a stupid question, but are the V11.5 files required for V11.5.7.0, or is V11.5.7.0 fully stand-alone so that I can remove /opt/ibm/db2/V11.5

There are other Installation related questions with similar details here and here .
I could not find anything related to
A file which the name starts with
After installation, later on when the systems are already in use, logins and permissions applied, firewall fixed, etc.
Is there a simple way to get hold of the list of features installed on a sql server instance?
listing the installed features in sql server 2016
though.
I can do it manually looking at the logs - as per the info below, but I would like to automate it.
After installing SQL Server 2016 I get a log file - located somewhere in these folders:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\130\Setup Bootstrap\Log\20200109_205540

Summary_
+my_server_name
in that file, amongst other things I can find a list of the Sql Server Features installed:

How to create a custom database with 32k block size via DBCA silent mode?
I am trying to create an Oracle 19c single instance (warehouse) with dbca silent mode. The problem is, when I try the command below, it gets a warning: "Ora-0058: DB_BLOCK_SIZE must be 8192 to mount this database (not 32768)". Rest of the lines are full of errors.

I am trying to create an Oracle 19c single instance (warehouse) with dbca silent mode. The problem is, when I try the command below, it gets a warning: "Ora-0058: DB_BLOCK_SIZE must be 8192 to mount this database (not 32768)". Rest of the lines are full of errors.
The command:
dbca -silent -createDatabase -initparams db_block_size=32768 -templateName Data_Warehouse.dbc -gdbname ${ORACLE_SID} -sid ${ORACLE_SID} -responseFile NO_VALUE -characterSet WE8ISO8859P9 -sysPassword SysPassword1 -systemPassword SysPassword1 -databaseType DATA_WAREHOUSING -memoryPercentage 40 -memoryMgmtType AUTO_SGA -storageType FS -datafileDestination "${DATA_DIR}" -redoLogFileSize 2048 -emConfiguration NONE -ignorePreReqs
I assume this is because of the template I'm using. But I don't have any custom templates. Also I don't want to use GUI as I'm not going to have this option for certain reasons.
How can I fix the command so dbca won't fail?
