Thank you all for your answers!. This solve one of my problems :) THANKS!!!
John, thats a very good question. I've already thought about that, but I've no idea how to act yet. Becuase, as you said, if there is already a posgre Database server installed in the target system, and I dont know the password, what can i do? I can not delete the existing user account because I would be affecting other software. What about if I create another service user account, with a different name, such as MyPostgreUserAccount? That way I ensure that I'm creating/deleting the Postgre User of my application. What do you think?
