I just downloaded 9.0 onto my laptop and desktop Windows XP machines. Nether one could run the stack builder. Windows would fault any time I tried to run it. I tried inputing the proxy server but that did not help.
I have found many tutorials but none look like the 9.0. Many seem to be for EnterpriseDB version 8.3.
I need a lot of help. I have seen tutorials that say to use pgAdmin III but they only address high level functions; I haven't found anything that gives a step by step. When I first bring up pgAdmin, the server entry has a red 'X' through it. I played around and got it to open and show tables and schema and things but I just stumbled on it. Now I don't rmember how I got there. But then I don't know what to do when I am.
I also tried the shell. create mydb. I used all the defaults but the console came back and rejected all the defaults and closed the console.
I would like to export an Excel file as CVS and ;'copy' into pg. So I would like to learn how to create a new database and what ever goes along with that to acheive this goal.
