What do you mean by "run postgreSQL"?
If you need to start the database server look at pg_ctl,
if you need to open the interactive terminal and run your SQL commands look at psql

Try to either use the fully qualified path, or cd to the directory where psql is installed, or add the directory where psql is installed to the path variable in your environment.

while setting the path to the location of psql
it's giving warning about window code page 1252

In most cases you can disregard this warning about code page.
But if you do want to try something new here's the info that may help.
psql on Windows is built as a "console application". Since the Windows console windows use a different encoding than the rest of the system, you must take special care when using 8-bit characters within psql. If psql detects a problematic console code page, it will warn you at startup. To change the console code page, two things are necessary:
1) Set the code page by executing cmd.exe /c chcp 1252. (you may need to replace 1252 with your value.)
2) Set the console font to "Lucida Console", because the raster font does not work with the ANSI code page.
Read the psql manual for more information.

I am developing a client application for postgreSQL in Tcl/Tk (see

It mainly uses PgTcl or pgintcl. I don't have any problems with those,
but I am also trying to call psql from my application for SQL statements

Hello all,
I just wanted to pass on some information about compatibility between
the psql client and the postgres server.
On a particular network, my workstation and the server are both debian
boxes, but the workstation is on a more frequent upgrade schedule. The
server is still running postgres 7.3.4, but my workstation has been
upgraded with the latest (7.4.1) postgres client tools.

Hi all!
I'm writing a script that presents the user with a numbered lines
menu, each line corresponding to a <case n> which executes a psql
command. As the psql-commands are very similar to each other (all of
them have the structure:
1.- psql mydb -x -c "SELECT * FROM tb_nm WHERE col_nm LIKE '%$k_r%'" )
I thought it was possible to shorten it, initializing a str with said
command at the beginning of the script and limiting the...

Hello,
Today I tried connecting to my database locally via psql. I got the usual
welcome & basic help messages, but it never got to the prompt: it just
hung. So I checked top and the psql process was increasing in size at
quite a rate (up to a gig in under 30 seconds).
I'd been using psql with no problems only a couple of hours ago, and I
haven't installed anything for at least a couple of days that I can think
of.

Hi All.
There is one thing which somewhat annoys me, which is that psql always
prompts me for a password.
That makes it difficult for use in Makefile where I want to say 'make
build_db', which would run psql for
each stored procedure which needs to be updated. Is there a way to
specify that password somehow in a
command line like isql ( sybase cli client ) does?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
