Thread: Postgres + NT

Postgres + NT

From
"Jim Rota"
Date:
We hired a Postgres developer to build us an application and now want to put it on our production server which uses NT...
 
The Postgres website says version 8.0 can run on NT but may have some bugs...
 
The question is:  Do earlier versions of Postgres run on NT and are they stable?
 
Thx,
 
Jim

All software may have some bugs.  The 8.0 version, however, isn't even
released yet.

Earlier versions only run on Windows when using the Cygwin porting
layer, which some people feel does not perform well.  It may be enough
for small installations, but not for high traffic sites.
