Re: postgresql on windows98

Thanks Raymond for the quick reply, but i have certain limitation to this.

I had created a standalone application on postgresql as a backend database
considering windows xp but now i have learnt that some clients are still
working on windows 98 OS.

So is there any way out for windows98 to act as a postgres server?

Thanks
Ravi

AFAIK, no; on Windows it needs an NT-type OS on which to run.

Does cygwin work on Win98? - you might have some luck there, though I
don't know whether newer versions of Windows will run on it; older ones
(<= 7.4) might.

Are you *really* tied to Windows 98? I haven't even *seen* it in
years.... Surely you must have some other options?

Ray.
