WARNING

The package has been suspended from automatic moderation due to unsatisfied dependencies. Moderation for this package will continue once all dependencies that satisfy the version range have been approved or exempted.

IMPORTANT

This version is in moderation and has not yet been approved. This means it doesn't show up under normal search.

  • Until approved, you should consider this package version unsafe - it could do very bad things to your system (it probably doesn't but you have been warned, that's why we have moderation).
  • This package version can change wildly over the course of moderation until it is approved. If you install it and it later has changes to this version, you will be out of sync with any changes that have been made to the package. Until approved, you should consider that this package version doesn't even exist.
  • You cannot install this package under normal scenarios. See How to install package version under moderation for more information.
  • There are also no guarantees that it will be approved.
WARNING

There are versions of this package awaiting moderation (possibly just this one). See the Version History section below.

Description

PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system (ORDBMS) based on POSTGRE, developed at the University of California at Berkeley Computer Science Department. POSTGRES pioneered many concepts that only became available in some commercial database systems much later.

PostgreSQL can be used, modified, and distributed by anyone free of charge for any purpose, be it private, commercial, or academic.

Features

Package parameters

  • /AllowRemote - Allow remote connections with username and password from all hosts by adding appropriate lines in the pg_hba.conf
  • /Password - Password to be assigned to the postgres user. If omitted, it will be generated and shown in the install output. PostgreSql installer ignores this parameter if there is existing installation.
  • /Port - Server port, if not set it defaults to 5432 or the first available port after it.
  • /NoPath - Do not add PostgreSql bin directory to the PATH.

Other parameters could be set via --ia argument, for example, to set custom components:

choco install postgresql13 --params '/Password:test /Port:5433' --ia '--enable-components server,commandlinetools'

Check all installer options by adding --help as command line argument.

Notes

  • Test installation (specify your password):
    $Env:PGPASSWORD='test'; '\conninfo' | psql -Upostgres
    This should output:
    You are connected to database "postgres" as user "postgres" on host "localhost" at port "5432"
  • This package will install PostgreSQL to $Env:ProgramFiles\PostgreSQL\[MajorVersion].
  • If you have problems during installation see troubleshooting page.
  • If you didn't specify password during setup and didn't record the generated one, you need manually reset it using the following steps:
    • Open file data\pg_hba.conf in PostgreSql installation directory
    • Change METHOD to trust and restart service with Restart-Service postgresql*
    • Execute "alter user postgres with password '[my password]';" | psql -Upostgres
    • Revert back data\pg_hba.conf to METHOD md5 and restart service
  • If you have trouble selecting specific install components see this issue

Virtual package

Each major version has its own package: postgresql<Version>

Virtual package postgresql also contains all versions that depend on adequate major version, but using it without problems require some special choco parameters.

To propagate package parameters to dependencies use --params-global choco install parameter with virtual package postgresql. Assuming latest version is 12, to provide password the following two examples result in identical installation:

choco install postgresql --params '/Password:test' --params-global
choco install postgresql12 --params '/Password:test'

To uninstall dependent package use --force-dependencies:

# The following two examples are identical
choco uninstall postgresql --force-dependencies
choco uninstall postgresql12 postgresql

# This example uninstalls only postgresql virtual package and not postgresql12
choco uninstall postgresql

To force reinstallation via virtual package use --force-dependencies:

# The following two examples are identical
choco install postgresql --force --force-dependencies
choco install postgresql12 --force --force-dependencies

# This will reinstall only postgresql virtual package and not its dependency postgresql12
choco install postgresql -force

# This one is different then the first one as vcredist140 dependency is not reinstalled
choco install postgresql12 --force

No results available for this package. We are building up results for older packages over time so expect to see results. If this is a new package, it should have results within a day or two.
