[pgadmin-support] pgadmin installation on Windows XP without administrator rights

[Robert Bruccoleri]

I am working at a location where I would like to test connectivity to a 
Linux PostgreSQL database from Windows XP, and it was suggested to me 
that I try using pgAdmin for that purpose. Unfortunately, I've run into 
a problem -- pgAdmin will not install on the Windows system without an 
administrator password, and I do not have adminstrative rights.

However, I can install other software packages on this Windows system by 
using my own directory on the C: drive, and presumably the registry 
entries that other software uses are not system entries.

The error message from pgAdmin implies that I do not have the right to 
install the software for all users on the system, but in this case, I 
would be able to do my connectivity testing if the software was 
installed just for me.

Any suggestions on what to try next?

Sincerely,
Robert Bruccoleri
