List pgsql-general
I used the same link: http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload

I chose Version 9.5.0 Beta 1 Linux x86-64

Then, I tried 9.4 for Linux x86-64

Has anyone downloaded/installed within last 2 days? my OS is RHEL 6.5

I am using the Linux machine's firefox browser to download.

is there a way to use yum to get the same installer program that goes through all the steps?

Please advise. thanks

Where did you download from?

Today, I attempted to download from the site. I notice 9.5 is there, but
getting lots of errors:

Looks like you are trying to run a *.exe(Windows) file on a Linux machine, that is the source of the errors.


1) when downloading and running latest

rchive:  /home/apatnaik/Downloads/postgresql-9.4.5-1-windows-x64.exe
[/home/apatnaik/Downloads/postgresql-9.4.5-1-windows-x64.exe]
   End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not
   a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the
   latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
   the last disk(s) of this archive.
zipinfo:  cannot find zipfile directory in one of
/home/apatnaik/Downloads/postgresql-9.4.5-1-windows-x64.exe or

/home/apatnaik/Downloads/postgresql-9.4.5-1-windows-x64.exe.zip, and
cannot find
/home/apatnaik/Downloads/postgresql-9.4.5-1-windows-x64.exe.ZIP, period.

2) Then I tried to scp from the other machine and changed permissions to
777 and used sudo to execute the file but get this:

bash-4.1$ chmod 777 postgresql-9.4.4-3-linux-x64.run
bash-4.1$ sudo ./postgresql-9.4.4-3-linux-x64.run
Installer payload initialization failed. This is likely due to an
incomplete or corrupt downloaded file.


What is the recommended 9.4 version to download from and the steps?

What OS and version?


I want to use the graphical installer since I used it last time.

Assuming you mean the EDB installer:
