Postgresql requires OpenSSL
 

Helllo all

Ive been currentley developing a perl cgi app that will talk to various database vendors. Im doing this as my university project and have been asked to make the app talk to mysql,oracle and postgresql. Ths only problem im getting is im trying to install postgresql on a shared laptop that runs Windows. And when i try to install it it states that Openssl needs to be installed?

"Note: Although PostgreSQL is capable of running on a Win32 platform, this book does not cover installation on Windows. The Win32 version of PostgreSQL requires the Cygwin environment and will not operate independently within Win32. Although Cygwin can be useful in many situations, the use of PostgreSQL in a Cygwin environment is not recommended."

You can get openssl for cygwin.
