Обсуждение: PGInstaller Project
This project is of great interest to me as I am looking for a easier-to-deploy database server and I've always loved PostgreSQL. the PGInstaller project (http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pginstaller/) looks like what I need but I'm worried that it's abandoned. I see a beta posted back in April but nothing more since then. Is there another more active project working on a way to install PG without making the user go through all the configuration by hand? I want to ship PG with a desktop software and I'd rather choose all the defaults myself rather than try to talk a novice user through setting up PG. -- - Mitchell Vincent - K Software - Innovative Software Solutions - Visit our website and check out our great software! - http://www.ksoftware.net

I wrote a VB wrapper and install PG from an embedded resource. It
handles all the messy details that technologically challenged users
might face.

I should have been a bit more explicit in that I wrap pgInstaller simply
to control all the command line options.
