Thread: pgAdmin installer name under Windows

Dear Dave,

Given the large number of sites where pgAdmin will be registered, it would be
better to provide the latest pgadmin installer for Windows under the same
name (=no versioning). Some sites recommend this.

Example:
pgadmin3.zip (or whatever).

This shall not stop us from also providing the normal installer
pgadmin3-1_0_2.zip

What do you think?

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

No problem, just add a symlink to the current version.

Interesting. After replication, do FTP servers support simlinks?
We should try to see what happens.

Yes they do. We use them already for the snapshots, plus we have them in the main PostgreSQL tree.
