Charging for *installing* PostgreSQL is not the same as charging for PostgreSQL.

Bottom line: you charge for *services**you provide* not for software that other people provide.

Thanks,
but is it legal to charge for installing PostgreSQL?
as you said:

You cannot (legitimately) charge the pharmacist for any part PostgresQL should I in the contract write that the price does not include installing PostgreSQL, preparing it or PostgreSQL itself?  or just from my side while I am going to set price I have to dont count installing the PostgreSQL or PostgreSQL itself as a part of that price?

    You can charge the pharmacist for your efforts: your web app (license),
    installing postgres and your schema (somewhere) and the data supporting
    your web-app, any documentation of your web-app and schema, any
    maintenance and support you care to specify. You can copy-right your app
    and schema and data.

    You cannot (legitimately) charge the pharmacist for any part PostgresQL.
