Installing postgresql 8.2.0 on Windows XP Pro SP2 using the msi installer dated
2006-12-04, with libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll (both dated 2005-07-06) (and
libiconv-2.dll, libintl-2.dll, and libpq.dll) from a previous installation (of
version 8.0.5) already present in c:\windows\system32. These files in system32
did not appear to be updated during the 8.2.0 installation. Instead new files
were placed in the postgresql bin directory: new versions of libeay32,
ssleay32, and libpq, the same version as the present of libiconv-2
(2003-01-31), and, surprisingly, a libintl-2 with an older date (2003-02-01)
than the file already present in system32 (2004-04-27). Is the libintl-2
supposed to be downgraded to a previous version?
I uninstalled postgresql, removed the 5 files mentioned above from system32.
When I installed 8.2.0 again, the installer reported that "The installer has
detected an incompatible version of OpenSSL installed in your system PATH.
PostgreSQL requires OpenSSL 0.9.7 or later. If you remove your OpenSSL files
(LIBEAY32.DLL and SSLEAY32.DLL) the installer will install the new version
automatically.". However, during the second installation, none of the 5 files
mentioned above were reinstalled in system32, only in the postgresql bin
directory, as during the first installation. Is the report of the missing
libeay32 and ssleay32 a superfluous leftover from the previous versions when
these files were installed in system32?
