 Deploying Postgresql Along My Windows App I am developing a wxPython app which can run, like Postgresql, on Linux and Windows boxes. Linux users are far more specialized than Windows one - and Postgres comes along with major distros. Windows users don't want (or are unable to) install Postgresql by themselves, so I was wondering if there is a way to deploy (or embed) it along my app. I would like to decompress a non-installer bin version, setup the initial catalog and run the server without users intervention. Can anyone help me? Thanks, Valter      |

| Re: Deploying Postgresql Along My Windows App Hello Valter, I am doing something similar with the Windows installer for the PostBooks project. Basically, what I do is this: 1. Use the Postgres windows installer to install 8.2.7 2. Import all the application's databases. 3. Using the NSIS Installer Generation app: 1. Include all files under c:\program files\postgresql... in my project; 2. Use NSIS utilities to install the PostgreSQL service in a custom manner. I do this on a non-standard port so that if the user already has PG, it does not clobber the existing install. I don't have a lot of time at the moment, but later today I can go into details if you like.
