Is is possible to have two different versions of PostgreSQL running on the same computer at the same time?
Yes. Works just fine. You might end up with some fun with applications finding the client libraries (generally better to let them all find the new libraries, even when you're expecting them to talk to the older server, I think) but apart from that running different versions on different ports seems to just work. If you use some sort of binary package to install, rather than installing from source all bets are off, and it likely won't work, but that's just a packaging limitation. Cheers, Steve
