Re: Several postgres installation on windows possible?

Hi Peter,

It is possible and I have created that in my machine.

I exact steps to make it are available at Paul's personal
blog.

If you haven't still resolved the issue, Just have a look on
the following site.

Second-Instance-of-PostgreSQL-8.1.4-on-Windows-2003.html

Hi Peter,

Say you have installed PostgreSQL in C:/PostgresA directory... make a
copy of this folder as C:/PostgreSQLB... edit the conf file say
postgres.conf(this should be in /data directory) file of second server
in C:/PostgreSQLB & locate the port & change it to 5433... then you can
start both servers with

C:\PostgresA>initdb -D /<path2PostgresADataDir>

C:\PostgresB>initdb -D /<path2PostgresBDataDir>

Pls note that I haven't checked this thing..if you want me to check then
gimme 1 day..I would check it & let you know..

Thanks,

Umesh

Hi Umesh,

Thanks for the fast reply, but how can i install the second,
third,.... postgres? As mentioned, the installer comes up with a simple
change dialogue.

Hi Peter,

I think it is possible you can run multiple servers on a single
machine, provided on different port & data directory.

Thanks,

Umesh

Subject: [ADMIN] Several postgres installation on
windows possible?

Hi Guys,

I like to deploy a application based on postgres and i
am pretty
unsure whether it is possible to have several postgres
installation
on windows running in parallel.
The normal installer comes up with a "change dialogue"
if i try to
install a second time or postgres is already installed
on the target
machine and i run my setup with the postgres installer
included.

Thanks for reading and answering,


Peter
