Thread: how to install postgresql on windows without admin privileges
Hello,
I usually use postgresql on Linux. At my work I use Window$ and don't have admin priviledges, but would like to install postgresql so that I can play with it when I have some time. Is there a way to do so?
Thanks
Ibrahim

Is there a way to do so? If you don't need it as a service the it's pretty simply: download the ZIP archive binaries from http://www.enterprisedb.com/products/pgbindownload.do unzip the archive and then run initdb from the commandline to create the database cluster. To start the server, simply run"pg_ctl -D \Path\To\Datadir start" Regards Thomas
