Normally you don't have to set up this file. Do Drupal 7 and mediaWiki require it? Try putting the file into: c:\Users\<Your Username>\AppData\Roaming\postgresql\ http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/libpq-pgservice.html > I have tried as a location several directories within > C:\Windows\SysWOW64 but nothing worked.

Is this a 32-Bit PostgreSQL version? Otherwise this does not make sense. Good luck.
