Обсуждение: pgAdmin III v1.8.0 Beta 2 released
I'm pleased to announce the release of the second beta version of pgAdmin III v1.8.0. pgAdmin is the leading graphical administration and development tool for PostgreSQL, EnterpriseDB and most other PostgreSQL-derived DBMSs. It can be used on Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, Mac and Solaris with servers on any platform. For more information, please see the website: http://www.pgadmin.org/ For details of the changes since v1.6, please see the changelog at: http://www.pgadmin.org/development/changelog.php To download the beta, please visit the download page at http://www.pgadmin.org/download/. In addition to the source code, binary downloads are currently available for Windows, Mac OS X and Slackware Linux. Additional binaries will be released as soon as possible. This is a pre-release version and should be used at your own risk! Please report any bugs or problems to pgadmin-support@postgresql.org. Regards, Dave. -- Dave Page pgAdmin Project Lead
I noticed a peculiarity when installing the new beta2 at my other PC (Win XP Home): I had the previous beta1 installed. When running "upgrade.bat" for beta2 it stopped with an error: A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file: G:\Soft\DB\pgadmin3-1.8.0-beta2\pgadmin3-1.8.0-beta1.msi It looks as though "msiexec" requires the previous .msi file in the same directory for deinstallation first. After copying old and new .msi files to the same directory it went off without a hitch. Both versions can live in the same directory as the filename of beta1 was different: "pgadmin3-1.8.0-beta1.msi". That's probably also why my first installation yesterday did not complain: I had the old .msi file in the same directory. It might become tricky, though, if the next beta has the same filename "pgadmin3.msi". One would have to rename the new .msi file and adapt the "upgrade.bat" to make it work - or deinstall the previous beta first and install without the "upgrade.bat" (probably simpler). Or could it be that "v" in "REINSTALLMODE=vamus" actually requires the .msi file of the previous version to have the same name? In this case it might work if the next .msi has the same name. I speculate after having read about msiexec options here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371182.aspx Regards Erwin

Hi Erwin, If the filename is the same it shouldn't complain, even if installed fom a different directory. The vamus option used in the batch file roughly equates to 'rerun this installation, overwriting every installed file'. Although it's a newer MSI file, it will upgrade because the features and components in the database are matched to those already installed by the product ID. This is the same technique we've used on the Windows builds of PostgreSQL since 8.0.1. Regards, Dave.

Additional binaries will be released as soon as possible. I just uploaded RPMs for Fedora Core 7. Also, there is an SRPM for all RH/FC platforms that has wx >= 2.8.0 .
