Hi
I am new to Postgres. I am using PostgreSQL 8.1.4 on WinXP.
I tried using dropdb.exe to drop a database I created using pgAdminIII.
It seems to me that dropdb.exe expects arguments in an apparently weird
kind of way.
When I give the program the following arguments, it throws up an error:
> dropdb -i -h localhost -p 5432 -U postgres - W password dataBaseToDrop
Error: "dropdb: too many command-line arguments (first is "test1")
Try "dropdb --help" for more information."
However, the following just gives a message I do not expect:
> dropdb -i -h localhost -p 5432 -U postgres - W password
Database "password" will be permanently removed.
Are you sure? (y/n) n
Is this acceptable/normail behavior?
Thanks
Sami
