When I did the windows install (NOT as a windows service) but as a task to be manually started and stopped, it did not creat a DATA directory, nor did it create a postgresql.conf file.
I even used windows explorer search to confirm that no such file exists. I did the uninstall and then reinstalled several times, to see if there was any different choice I could make. My next step would be to configure it as a Windows service. I am just concerned whether the uninstall of such a windows service would be a clean uninstall. I would appreciate any advice on how to get this postgresql windows install working on my Dell with XP Professional OS.
I feel that IF I could achieve an install which actually creates a DATA folder, and a posgresql.conf file, that I could then attempt to add the listening command.
Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.
