[postgis-users] access is denied in Windows 7

[James David Smith]

I'm not sure if this is the same issue, but I often have similar problems
when I am importing data. Have you tried to dump to the 'Data' folder
within the PostgreSQL installation folder? I think you may find that works
ok. I think it's permissions for writing to the folder that you are
getting, rather than accessing the database.
