[Gnumed-devel] USBPG for Windows available

[Sebastian Hilbert]

Hi all,

To follow up on my announcement there is now USBPg v9 available. What is 
USBPg ? 

USBPg v9 is a relocatable PostgreSQL installation for MS Windows with the v9 
GNUmed database included. This effectively means that you can now run GNUmed 
without any installation whatsoever from whatever directory you want. To go 
even further it now possible (TM) to run GNUmed client (0.3.2) and server 
(v9) from a USB drive.

Download USBPG_v9.zip. 
Extract it to any directory on your USB drive e.g. F:\USBPG_v9
Run PortableGISMenu.exe

A small taskbar icon will appear and give you a menu.

Select 'Start Postgresql', 'Stop Postgresql' or 'PgAdmin3'

You can now run GNUmed portable client or the locally installed client. 

HINT1: The postgresql database server is configured to accept connections on 
localhost only but anyone on localhost - change accordingly in the postgresl 
configurations files if you dislike that.

HINT2: the portable Postgresql starts on port 5432 just as a locally installed 
client would - either change the port in the postgresql configuration file 
(but remember to change the port for the gnumed client as well) or simply 
stop the locally installed postgresql so the portable server can start on 
port 5432

Have fun with GNUmed on the go (TM)
