Hello Arches Community! I am very excited to about the Arches Project and this new thing called Github. Unfortunately, I am a newbie...and have lots to learn. After searching thru the previous posts on this topic, none seemed to specifically addressed the items I am struggling with - so here goes.
I was able to download and install all of the "Dependencies" listed here http://arches3.readthedocs.org/en/stable/installing-dependencies-windows/ <http://arches3.readthedocs.org/en/stable/installing-dependencies-windows/>and I am fairly confident that each are installed in the right locations on my local machine..... However, for PostgreSQL 9.3 - I do not understand the following: - After installing PostgreSQL you’ll need to run 2 commands from a command window (this only applies to PostgreSQL 9.2 and above). Open a command window and at the command prompt type the following: createdb -U postgres -E UTF8 -T template0 template_postgis_20 psql -U postgres -d template_postgis_20 -c "CREATE EXTENSION postgis;" Where am I supposed to type these lines of code? Do I need to include any additional syntax? How do I know if this worked? And what the heck is a "Port"? (I have tried typing the info into the SQL Shell and Python27 Command Window, but neither seem to work. Screenshots below) <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-JalfXaETJro/Vsh4htLEaTI/AAAAAAAACWs/-oycVWAOCgQ/s1600/1.JPG> <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-07AnI7uW9IU/Vsh5SYmUAPI/AAAAAAAACW0/ASo5XOlrHyo/s1600/2.JPG> My second challenge involves upgrading pip.py. I have Python 2.7.9 installed on my machine, but when I type the recommended code "python -m pip install -U pip" into the command prompt - I get "SyntaxError: invalid Syntax" (screen shot below). Wondering, what am I missing here? How can I get this to work? <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-KE8LYH305nY/Vsh7DcZk0eI/AAAAAAAACW8/moSq3jiL5B4/s1600/3.JPG> Any and all assistance greatly appreciated!!!!!!!
