Обсуждение: PostgreSQL on NT
I'm all new the PostgreSQL system, so please excuse me if this is the wrong list. I want to check how I can use PostgreSQL on a WEB-server (NT, IIS). Is there a pre-build binary NT distribution of PostgreSQL (+ tools needed), or do I have to build it from scratch myself. If it does exist, where to I find it. Thanks for any help / hints.

I will host it on my site. I have plenty of HD space...

But, the above mentioned postgresql-7.0.2-10.tar.gz *is* a pre-compiled binary. I wasn't sure that you would accept a binary built by someone else. So, I was also providing you with my build recipe just in case you wanted to build it yourself. Anyway, I'll willing to email or ftp postgresql-7.0.2-10.tar.gz if you want it. Let me know how you would like to proceed.

Yes that would be great. Would you also be able to provide instructions on how to install a functional win32 PostgreSQL server. There are many DBA's, interested users etc. who are not programmers that would benefit from a win32 version that can be installed i.e.. "setup.exe". PostgreSQL would gain a greater audience/user base by providing a server that can be easily installed into the win32 environment. This would include not just PostgreSQL, but the entire cygwin/PostgreSQL solution. With regards to win32<>Linux, I'm on both sides of the fence. If I had a "solid" win32<>Linux PostgreSQL solution I might be more inclined to use/develop using PostgreSQL. As it is I, cannot use PostgreSQL for my win32 clients, so I am stuck with other Server's that provide support for win32<>Linux. This should be a wake up call to all the propeller heads (I am one) out there working on PostgreSQL, wiggle that hot dog in front of their noses and they will come...

Kevin Lo has already provided the above. See the following:

The above is exactly what we are doing. I wrangled the perl script,
update-setup, that creates the setup.ini file used by Cygwin's setup.exe
from its author. With update-setup, it is very simple to create custom
Cygwin installations. One approach is to create a setup that installs
all Cygwin packages plus PostgreSQL. Another approach installs only
the minimum necessary Cygwin packages plus PostgreSQL. And yet another
approach installs only PostgreSQL, the user would be required to install
Cygwin from a mirror too. Note that in all of these approaches, the
user is using the same setup.exe -- possibly more than once to different
URLs.
I must point out that the author sent me update-setup under the conditions
of no support. I will contact him and ask his permission to send you
a copy. If he gives permission, which is likely if you agree to no
support too, then I will forward a copy to you.

Hmm...from where did the above come? I'm not touching this one with a
10 ft. pole! :,)
Thanks,
