No, just use the 32bit version. There's no real benefit from having it be
built as 64bit - just the downside of having to maintain 2 builds instead
of 1.

I assume you get a 64bit version, but to be honest, I've never looked.
Sandeep, can you confirm please?

pgadmin Windows has no option to edit configuration files...

2018-01-11 Thread André Verwijs

pgadmin Windows has no option to edit configuration files

"C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL 10\data\pg_hba.conf"
"C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL 10\data\postgresql.conf"

i don't recommend doing this by hand, is it possible to add this option?

​To my understanding pgAdmin is limited to communicating with PostgreSQL
via a session - there is no guarantee that the two programs are even on the
same machine.  IOW, editing server boot configuration files seems outside
of pgAdmin's charter.  Administration of the contents of databases it what
is targeted, not getting the server up and running in the first place.
Configuration management tools cover the later.

I suppose it could wrap a UI on top of "ALTER SYSTEM"...

As of now there is no SQL-means to edit pg_hba.conf

​You might need to accept that you are in the minority that those files
should not be hand edited - ALTER SYSTEM provides for specialized usage but
at the end of the day the desire for UI tools for those two (three: ident)
files is pretty limited (at least relative to the cost to develop one).

PgAdminIII did/does have the facility to edit the postgresql.conf & pg_hba.conf.
However, as David G. Johnston pointed out, it was limited to editing _local_ 
versions
of those files. 

>i don't recommend doing this by hand, ...
That statement implies that you feel that using a GUI will protect you from 
making
errors. That is untrue. If you use a GUI to change the authentication method in 
the 
pg_hba.conf (not to mention other critical parameters), you could easily lock 
out 
many users upon reloading/restart. Likewise, the same applies for changing 
values
in postgresql.conf. Simply having an easy way to change values does not mean 
you will
be protected from setting them too high(or wrong). EG: setting work_mem to 1GB 
will be very bad.It is better to learn and understand WHY you need to change 
values, than just having
an easy way to do so.
