Should I establish the database with postgresql?

cdzhahonjin · 04/14/2010, 05:32

Hi yall!
First of all, sorry for my noobish words. I am really new in this area. I found that the pservers are more interesting than the TQ ones. So I wanted to start my own server. However, since I don't know too much about those technical things like c# or whatever, I encoutered a lot of questions while buliding my own server. I just got source from this forum, but I donno how to set up my database. Everytime I tried to establish it with postgresql, it just failed. It always telling me postgresql setting up failed. So anyone can help me out? I am using XP.

But why when I used the postgreSQL, it always tells me stablishing data failed or w/e... How is that? Any suggestion for it?

Please, if you can't fix this db issue, plox don't use one of the first CO sources made >.<

Oh, btw, how can I open the "Source backup" file? I have tried both navicat and mysql gui, but none of them work well.

ITS POSTGRES NOT MYSQL!

MySQL vs PostgreSQL is a decision many must make when approaching open-source relational databases management systems. Both are time-proven solutions that compete strongly with proprietary database software. MySQL has long been assumed to be the faster but less full-featured of the two database systems, while PostgreSQL was assumed to be a more densely featured database system often described as an open-source version of Oracle. MySQL has been popular among various software projects because of its speed and ease of use, while PostgreSQL has had a close following from developers who come from an Oracle or SQL Server background.

These assumptions, however, are mostly outdated and incorrect. MySQL has come a long way in adding advanced functionality while PostgreSQL dramatically improved its speed within the last major releases. Many, however, are unaware of the convergence and still hold on to stereotypes based on MySQL 4.1 and PostgreSQL 7.4. The current versions are MySQL 5.1 and PostgreSQL 8.4.
