I have the latest version of PHP and Apache 1.3.9 and I want to install PostgreSQL. I have Windows 98, but I don't have Visual C++ to compile the source. Anybody know how to install postgresql on windows 98 without needing to compile anything? If not, what free compiler can I use and how can I do it? Thanks for the help in advance.
Right now the only precompiled binaries are for version 7.0.0, not 7.0.[1-3], and it is in this directory:
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v7.0/NT/
Where are you planning to run it once you've got it compiled? AFAIK, PostgreSQL will only run on NT, not 9x.

The author specifies info for Windows NT/2000, but I think it might work for Windows 98 also...
