Maintenance Mode DB creation fails without message with PostgreSQL 15 on Windows

[pclark]

On Windows Server 2022, installed postgres 15, then attempted to install FusionAuth app and search (1.40.2). When Maintenance Mode came up, entered postgres user and password, used default fusionauth user and password, and clicked submit. Page came back to Maintenance Mode screen without any error message. Log showed stack trace with

 Cause: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: permission denied for schema public

Looking in postgres list of dbs, saw the fusionauth db had been created with UTF8 for Collate and Ctype params. Looking at the advanced installation instructions, saw manual db setup for Windows required:

CREATE DATABASE fusionauth ENCODING 'UTF-8' LC_CTYPE 'English_United States' LC_COLLATE 'English_United States' TEMPLATE template0;

Was able to use these instructions to create the db and user, then Maintenance Mode was able to complete table creation and setup.
If not possible for Maintenance Mode to detect that the db is on Windows, would be great to have an error message instead of having to interpret the log file trace.
