<div>Hi,<br><br></div>I have the same problem.<br></div>
<div>I installed postgres on an XP PC, which worked fine. (PostgreSQL 9.1.7,
compiled by Visual C++ build 1500, 32-bit)<br></div>
<div>Then I used the StackBuilder to install PostGIS 2.<br></div>
<div>Upon creating the extension, i get the error "ERROR: could not load library
"C:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/9.1/lib/postgis-2.0.dll": unknown error
998"<br></div>
<div>The same happens when executing the sql "create extension
postgis;"<br></div>
<div></div><br>I tried pasting the contents from the bin folder from the
compressed postgis installation file into ../9.1/bin/, but to no
avail.<br></div>
<div></div>
<div><br>I used Depends.exe to diagnose, like Paragon suggested.<br></div>I
included the dwi-file as an attachment.<br></div>Is there anything i can
do?<br></div><br></div>Cheers,<br><br></div>WBL<br></div>

<blockquote style='border-left:2px solid #CCCCCC;padding:0 1em' style="border-left:#ccc 1px solid;padding-left:1ex" class="ecxgmail_quote">So, I've been trying to install PostGIS 2.0 over and over

getting it up and<br>running. So I ended up borrowing my brother's Windows 7
pc, using the exact<br>same download (postgreSQL + postgis using stackbuilder)
which took me about<br>5 minutes to succesfully install the whole
thing.<br><br>I have no clue why it doesn't work on my XP. More exactly, why
it can't find<br>the correctly located postgis-2.0.dll-file. But at least I'll
be able to<br>test and recap the 'PostGIS in Action' on Windows 7 from now
on.<br><br>Many thanks for suggesting and helping anyway.<br><br>--<br>View
