As mentioned previously we will use the techy psql which is the command line interface for PostgreSQL.You will need to first connect to the user postgres from your localhost to create the database owner. The command prompt postgres=# indicates that you are connected to the postgres database.

How to Install PostgreSQL easily on Windows Vista or XP?
2007-09-09 15:32:00 PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system (ORDBMS) and is distributed as a Open Source software under the BSD License. This is a very stable and useful database when you consider to use a DB free from license restrictions like SQL Server or Oracle.In this post I will explain to you simple steps to Install PostgreSQL in a Windows Vista or XP machine with ease. To start-off, you will need to download the latest release of PostgreSQL direct from the official website.Next, extract the file from the archive you have downloaded. Run postgresql-8.2.msi as an administrator user account in Vista or XP. You will then need to select your language and check "Write detailed installation log to postgresql-8.1.log in the current directory". Once you agree to the terms on the license, select what you want to install. I would suggest that you check everything from Database server and also select the installation directory.

Who Else Wants To Use PostgresSQL Instead Of MySQL?
2007-03-23 16:59:00 In a previous post I mentioned that we use PostgreSQL as our database server. Common sense might indicate that we use MySQL as that is what the core team is using and what would probably be considered to be the defacto standard for Rails development.So why are we using PostgreSQL?Probably the biggest reason we use PostgresSQL is the simplest...I like it more than MySQL. This is one of the main reasons why we picked Rails as our development platform. When all things are equal, pick the one that is more enjoyable to use as you're going to be spending lots of time with it and it helps with motivation during those long hours of a startup.Both databases are perfectly capable and I've used both on live sites but I've always found MySQL to be harder to use from the command line. This may be because I don't know how to use all the features but that's is part of the problem isn't it? Learning PostgreSQL on the command line was very easy and intuitive, MySQL isn't.The other reason...
Sun Takes a Swing at Oracle/Linux with PostgreSQL
2007-02-21 23:35:00 Hmmm, it looks like Sun is getting serious with PostgreSQL database and packaging it with Solaris 10.
