Re: Installer Postgresql Windows 10
Linda Berens
This happened to me as well. Turned out I couldn't use a Domain user (even though it is an admin on the local machine). I had to log in as a local admin user, and then the installation worked. This is very weird.
I tried installing Postgresql-9.5.19.1-windows-x64 version (downloaded from official page) on Windows 10 x64 and it gave me the same error. I tried executing it with administrator privileges, giving permissions to the temp folder, moving temp folder to another location but nothing worked...
In my case e.g.: I removed the /data folder from the (Windows 10) [Drive]/Program Files/PostgreSQL/11 and as soon as I uninstalled version 11.2 and reinstalled (earlier removed 12) version 12: when I started pgAdmin4 my former servers ([nameA] and [PostgreSQL 11] and databases nd the new server [PostgreSQL 12] were there! And the connection was reestablished
For me, problem was that some files inside Data folder of existing Postgres installation had cleared permissions & ownership information. I was able o fix the problem by going one level up above Data directory and re-setting the Owner of the child directories & files via standard Windows dialog. After that, re-running installer allowed icacls to set permissions & finish the installatio nsuccesfully.
Apparently this happens if you uninstall PostgreSQL and do not delete the "data" directory where your databases are stored. When you attempt to (re)install PostgreSQL, it fails to change permissions on that directory, because it already exists. I was able to work around this apparent bug in the installer by deleting all of C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL manually. But that might not be an option if you have data in there that you haven't backed up.
After stopping the setup the pg - service was removed and rights in pg-data / base - folder were missing.We run takeown /F d:\PgData12\* /R /A and startet the setup again. Then it worked without other problems.
For me, on Postgre 16.3 installer, the problem was that the installer log, which can be found on Windows at '%temp%\install-postgresql.log' said that it tried to create a local user account with the same name as my domain account, and then it tried to set inheritance on the installer temporary folder in %temp% and icalcs could not do that, it failed. My solution was to rename the existing local account that I wasn't using to something else.
This is a step-by-step guide to install PostgreSQL on a windows machine. Since PostgreSQL version 8.0, a window installer is available to make the installation process fairly easier.
We will be installing PostgreSQL version 11.3 on Windows 10 in this article.
There are couple of ways to verify the installation of PostgreSQL like connecting to the database server using some client applications like pgAdmin or psql.
The quickest way though is to use the psql shell. For that follow the below steps:
Because some problems can't be fixed in the installer, but are issues with the Windows installation or how it is being used, there is also a list of frequently asked questions and frequently encountered problems with PostgreSQL on Windows. Please read the common installation errors section, or preferably the whole document. You'll probably save some time and hassle by doing so.
If you've tried all that, and you're still having problems getting PostgreSQL installed, please read on to find out how you can collect the information we need to be able to help you with installation problems.
Please do not ask the mailing list for help with installation on unsupported Windows platforms. However, one of the paid PostgreSQL consultants, or EnterpriseDB (who make the PostgreSQL installer) may be able to help you on a paid basis.
The Windows FAQ discusses potential issues with antivirus software and 3rd-party firewalls. If you're encountering any installation issues, please try again with your virus scanner uninstalled (not just disabled) to see if the problem goes away. If it does, please report the fact to the mailing list and to the vendor of your antivirus product.
The installer creates a log file in the system 'temp' directory. This will log all manner of data about the installation, and is invaluable when troubleshooting. The log will be called install-postgresql.log if the installation completed successfully. If not, the installer may not have been able to rename it, in which case the name will be either bitrock_installer.log or bitrock_installer_xxx.log, where xxx is a number (actually the process ID of the installation attempt).
The PostgreSQL server has its own error log. This may not exist if installation failed early on, but it can be very informative for errors that happened later in installation. You can find it in the "pg_log" folder inside the data directory you chose for PostgreSQL. If it exists, please include it in any problem reports.
Hi!
I am using this on Linux too without problem. When i tried to use this connection on Windows, i got this problem. I downloaded the binary for windows on www.libreoffice.org and get this problem. On Linux, i install postgres-sdbc and everything works fine. On windows, i cant find something similar. I was thinking if is possible download the binary of postgres-sdbc driver for windows. If not, maybe the only solution is compile a binary for windows with that option?
When creating a NEW Base file with SBDC connection always get error of differing types when trying to test connection. Can save though and then enter connection information ( I used postgresql://localhost:5432/mydb) and this gets a successful connection. May work on Windows also.
However, please note. If a mistake is made on entering information, you will likely get errors until you start from the beginning - meaning close all LO processes including the Base create. Otherwise the error will continue. You can still save as noted in the answer.
Currently using PostgreSQL 13 and LO v 7.0.3.1 on Ubuntu 20.04.1 Mate, I have no problem with 'pg_hba.conf file set to md5. I do see the notation in the manual but have no problem. Have not had to modify this setting in any of the versions (LO or PostgreSQL) used and have been using this for at least a few years now.
The PostgreSQL database manages the multi-version concurrency control to manage the concurrency (MVCC). When we run a transaction on PostgreSQL, it gives the snapshot of the database, which allows each transaction to made changes on the database without affecting the other transaction. PostgreSQL has three levels of transaction isolation.
In this article, we are going to focus on the step-by-step installation process of PostgreSQL on windows 10. Before the installation, we must download the stable copy of the PostgreSQL 13 server from the location. We can use this installer to install PostgreSQL on windows in graphical and silent mode. The setup file contains the following software packages:
On the Port screen, specify the Port number on which the PostgreSQL server will listen to the incoming connections. By default, the PostgreSQL server listens on port number 5432. You can specify the non-default post on this screen. Make sure any other application must not use the port you specify in the Port textbox, and it must allow the incoming and outgoing connections. In our case, I am not changing the port.
The PostgreSQL server has been installed successfully. If you want to install additional components and drivers, you can choose to open the stack builder. In our case, I am not installing additional components. Click on Finish to complete the installation.
As you can see, the query execution status will be displayed in the messages pan. Now, let us insert some records in the tblemployee. Run the following query to insert data in tblemployee.
We can use the pSQL command-line utility to manage the PostgreSQL database. The SQL Shell is automatically installed with the PostgreSQL server. When we launch the SQL Shell, it prompts for following options.
In this article, we learned the step-by-step installation process of PostgreSQL on windows 10. I have also given a high-level overview of the pgAdmin4 tool and how we can connect to the PostgreSQL database using pgAdmin and SQL Shell (pSQL) utility.

PostgreSQL is one of the most popular database solutions in the world. A few years back, I published a blog post full of PostgreSQL links and general information which includes links for the various distributions that are available and some connectivity options for Delphi. Shortly before that article was released, EDB and 2ndQuadrant merged and since that time EDB seems to be the only choice for pre-built community edition installers for Postgres on Windows (2ndQuadrant previously provided their own custom builds. EDB offers a download page for installers and also a page for release zips of the binaries. This post focuses on installing PostgreSQL from a release zip.
When given a choice, I prefer to utilize zip archives versus a full installer as you can typically customize the install a little more. In addition, the release zips are typically smaller than the full installer. In this particular case, the release zip only 10% smaller and that is certainly not as big of an issue as it used to be. However, a much larger difference involves the speed of installation. The Windows Installer is slow and can take around 3.5 to 4 minutes to complete while the PowerShell script can be finished in about 20 seconds on the same machine. You can even cut that 20 second install time in half if you do not install pgAdmin. The fancy progress bar provided by the Windows Installer is simply not worth that much of a slowdown to me. There is an unattended/silent mode option available for the full installer, but that takes the same amount of time to complete. (For reference, the unattended mode uses the switches: --mode unattended --unattendedmodeui none)
