I’ve been trying to install PostgreSQL for a week. Can’t get the repositories to work correctly≥ (lemmy.world)

PostgreSQL says it’s included in Ubuntu related operating systems, but I’m not sure. I’m unable to start the service, or set up new servers in PgAdmin. I’ve tried to install the repositories but I’m either getting “1831” architecture errors, or no release file errors. I’ve tried fixing the list file, but it doesn’t seem to help. If anyone can help i would really appreciate it

The course I’m taking provides download links for an installer for windows, and Mac. After this and another problem I’ve had on Mac back in the day I’m thinking of switching to windows. Maybe the development software works better there.

I had issues with setting a postres user, or adding my user to the postgres user group... It's confusing because there are Linux users and Postgres users, you can mix and match.. make it work. I did, but forgot how. Switched to docker (setting postgres user and password in docker compose) and moved ahead... Simpler, cleaner, manageable.

    I actually got it working thanks to @fal@yiffit.net i learned two things. First i need to be more careful about what questions I’m asking. The second thing is to use ChatGPT wisely.
