Hi,
I'm writing an instruction on how to install a PostgreSQL service on
windows. I want to keep it as simple as possible and would therefor very
much like to rely on the pre-packaged installer. For various reasons the
install has to be Swedish LATIN1 and I have concluded that this can be
achieved by using locale Swedish_Sweden.28591 (or sv_SE.28591). Unless
I'm missing something, the windows installer doesn't allow that to be
specified.
So what is the simplest way to do this? I've tried this:
- Install using the windows installer.
- Stop the service
- Wipe the data folder
- Do an initdb --locale=sv_SE.28591 -U postgres
- Start the service again
Is there an easier way? Is there an easy way to make a custom installer?
Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
