Hi, is it possible to run PostgreSQL only with an startup script without any installation and non administator rights on Windows 2000/XP? Background: We deploy an application that needs a database. Normaly the customer has his own database, but sometimes ... Currently we deploy MySQL as our fall back database. MySQL is placed in a separate directory and is startable by local user simple clicking on 'startDatabase.bat'. MySQL has some issues and we are looking for an alternative. Bye Thomas |
You need to install Postgres. You can start and stop the services manually. If
I recall correctly, the default is to have the Postgres services start
automatically, but you can change them. But I think you need to be an admin to
do that - but I could be wrong.
I think PostgresSQL is a geat alternative to MySQL.

- We don't need SSL encrypted communication
- etc.
We need a SQL database started and running in a user context accessing
a user owned database. That's all ...
