Thread: postgresQL on NT?

Good day boys and girls,

I am looking at the moment of trying to install postgresQL on NT or Windows
2000.  I did find a post that referred to installing cygwin.  I want to you
a web server with postgresQL (possibly JBoss).  Do you know of any issues.

Is release 7.1.2 compatible with Linux (Suse 7.0) and NT.  Any advice
(documentation) would be great

Great job!

Start by reading the installation instructions.

I just grabbed the source from postgresql.com but the build fails. Looking
at the makefile, it's obvious what the first cause is - hard-coded
subdirectory paths. Altering these to my local path gets a bit further but
not very - and I'm no expert in debugging makefiles.

Doss anyone have this working or is it a good idea that's fallen by the
wayside?
