Hi,
There is an article https://www.veeam.com/kb4698 about a similar issue with the VeeamBackup&Replication_12.3.0.310_20241201.iso from which December 2024 which was fixed where the Veeam installer does the same thing and skips the PostgreSQL installation.
This is not the issue I experienced but the behaviour is similar.
I did log a case #07666244 and it appears the Veeam installer is creating a registry key for the PostgreSQL before PostgreSQL is even installed.
Not knowing the logic of the Veeam installer we assume it sees this registry key and skips the PostgreSQL installation.
The question then is why the Veeam installer is creating the registry key first and then running the PostgreSQL installation? Surely you run the installation and if it is successful then you create the required configuration in the registry, not beforehand.
Thanks
Kevin
