Using Windows 7 64 bit. Tried to install 8.4 and 9.0and it fails right near the end when it tries to create or read the conf file. If I transfer my postgres 8.4 file over the upgrade takes but the postgres service doesn't exist so no communication occurs. Is there anyway to just install the postgres service? Or another solution?
If you have the binaries and can start the server using pg_ctl, then you can always register the service using pg_ctl: pg_ctl register -N PostgreSQL -U windows_user -P secret_windows_password -D c:/Data/Postgres More details are in the manual: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/app-pg-ctl.html -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
