Обсуждение: psql client binary
Hopefully not to grievous an FAQ: can anybody point me at a precompiled binary of the psql terminal-based front-end to run on NT hopefully not requiring Cygwin, or has this been effectively replaced by pgAdmin? -- Mark Morgan Lloyd markMLl .AT. telemetry.co .DOT. uk [Opinions above are the author's, not those of his employers or colleagues]

pginstaller has such a psql binary that should work on NT, but it will
not install on NT. See the FAQ:

See the FAQ: > > http://pginstaller.projects.postgresql.org/faq/FAQ_windows.html Thanks Bruce. So in general NT4 is out as a client and I might not even be able to install pgAdmin as a binary. Bit of a bother that- I'm hoping to get clients and users onto Linux RSN but until then being able to e.g. cut-and-paste out of psql is something I find very useful indeed. Alternatively is there a binary somewhere of the psql client that uses the Cygwin DLL? Apologies for sounding like a total wimp, I'm an embedded-systems guy who also does Delphi on PCs. I'm up to a bit of C hacking under Linux but have never dirtied my hands with C or C++ on Win-32. -- Mark Morgan Lloyd markMLl .AT. telemetry.co .DOT. uk [Opinions above are the author's, not those of his employers or colleagues]

The client should work on NT4. It's the server that has some problems. And th einstlaler itself. But if you use the binaries-no-installer distribution (it's on the ftp site), you should be able to use it. Not sure about pgAdmin. > Alternatively is there a binary somewhere of the psql client > that uses the Cygwin DLL? I think there may be on ein the actual Cygwin distribution, but I'm not sure - it may also be an old verison. //Magnus

Use the no-installer win32 package (it's just a zip of the core server files), psql should run on any version of windowsfrom 95. You'll need some of the dlls as well - from memory: Libpq.dll Libintl.dll Libiconv.dll Comerr32.dll Krb5_32.dll Libeay32.dll Ssleay32.dll And pgAdmin /should/ work as well, but I don't know if anyone has tried it on NT4 in a while.
