Дата:
The first beta release of the MSI based GUI installer for the native
win32 port of postgresql has been uploaded to pgfoundry!

While this is a beta version of the installer, please note that the
actual postgresql version being installed is still a development
snapshot! View the release notes for more details.

There is a mailinglist available on the pgfoundry project page for the
installer project - please use this mailinglist for discussions about
the installer, and not the normal postgresql lists. All feedback is
appreciated!

Included in this release are:
* PostgreSQL 7.5 development snapshot
* PgAdmin III development snapshot
* ODBC Driver
* JDBC Driver
* NPgsql .Net provider

See http://pginstaller.projects.postgresql.org for a quick walk-through
of the installer interface, or go off to the project page
(http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pginstaller/) to download the beta.

The screen shots look excellent. Well done.

Is it intended to provide an option to create the service user, or is
that not possible?

cheers

Is "contrib" also included ?
I'm asking because of commonly used contrib modules "tsearch" and "dblink".

Refgards !

Forgive me if I play the devil's advocate.

I had some problems installing it on a clean win32 box.   The test
computer had neither cygwin nor mingw installed (windows xp).

The installation process worked as it should; however, the screen
requiring the logon account for postgres does not give an entirely
useful error.    I had created a limited account as a user would have
been expected to do ( help screen or hint could be useful here).   I
kept getting a user could not log in with sufficient rights error.   I
would suggest telling the installer the account needs the "run as
service" privilege.   The old "pg_ctl register ..." command adjusted the
login account accordingly, but I see that has been removed.  Once, the
program opens the command prompt to initdb the postgres.exe process dies
continuously with no error message.   Eventually, I had to close the
command prompt and cancel the installation process.

Dera Magnus,

The installer looks excellent. If you are willing to bundle pgAdmin III with
PostgreSQL, you may consider switching the default encoding to UNICODE.

From memory, pgAdmin III is designed to work well with any encoding, except
SQL_ASCII. When using SQL_ASCII, the results for non-US users are
unpredictable.

Because UNICODE includes all other encodings (except maybe some Japanese
exceptions), it should be proposed by default by your installer.

Kind regards,
Jean-Michel Pouré
