Hi,
 
Is postgress the same as postgresql?
 
My company wants me to do some experiment with Postgress. Could you tell me what Postgress is and where I can download it?
 
 
 
Thank you
 
James

James,

Fist of all I don't have much time to help with anything like that.

Having said that...It depends.

If you are running windows installing it can be a pain in the butt.  You have to get cgwin which installs a kind of unix shell on your computer.  I have done it and it is not easy.

If you are running Unix/Linux all you need to do is unload the tar in a directory.  There will be documentation on compiling the code on your system.  You will typically run a 'configure' command followed by a 'make' and then a 'make install'.  However, this is simply a quick overview.  You must read the documentation to make sure you are doing to right things.

P.S I CCed the admin list so all can see and comment on our interaction.
