Regina,

I guess this e-mail was intended for somebody else (Willy).
I still haven't been able to install PostGIS 2.0 on my Windows XP, but am using it on Windows 7 succesfully.

Yours sincerely,
Wouter

Willy,
 
when you say compressed postgis file -- you mean the one on 
this page?
 
http://www.postgis.org/download/windows/#windbinaries
 
I unfortunately don't have a windows xp machine readily handy 
to test with.  I haven't tried upgrading my test to 9.1.7 to rule that out 
as an issue so I'll give that a try.
This issue is usually caused by libxml2-2.dll 
incompatibilities.  Though I gather you are using the one packaged with 
PostGIS since it looks like the postgres one isu using 
libxml2.dll
 
Have you been running PostGIS 2 or 1.5 on your windows xp 
successfully in past
 
Thanks,
Regina

Hi,

I have the same problem.

I installed postgres on an XP PC, which worked fine. (PostgreSQL 9.1.7, 
compiled by Visual C++ build 1500, 32-bit)

Then I used the StackBuilder to install PostGIS 2.

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"

The same happens when executing the sql "create extension 
postgis;"

I tried pasting the contents from the bin folder from the 
compressed postgis installation file into ../9.1/bin/, but to no 
avail.


I used Depends.exe to diagnose, like Paragon suggested.
I 
included the dwi-file as an attachment.
Is there anything i can 
do?

Cheers,

WBL
