Thread: Canceling/Killing a query

Is there a way to kill a query that was ran from PHP?

In Linux you could kill the process, but what can I do in windows?
Restarting the service is hardly the best option.

You can use "pg_ctl kill" on the commandline, or you can use the
function pg_cancel_backend(), see
