1. how to install postgresql on windows without admin privileges

   Ibrahim Shaame <ishaame@gmail.com> — 2009-08-26T15:38:51Z

   Hello,
       I usually use postgresql on Linux. *At* my work I use Window$ and don't
   have admin priviledges, but would like to install postgresql so that I can
   play with it when I have some time. Is there a way to do so?
   Thanks
   Ibrahim

   If you don't need it as a service the it's pretty simply: 
   
   download the ZIP archive binaries from 
   
   http://www.enterprisedb.com/products/pgbindownload.do
   
   unzip the archive and then run initdb from the commandline to create the database cluster. To start the server, simply run "pg_ctl -D \Path\To\Datadir start"
   
   Regards
