How can I find which version I'm using? All I could see in pgAdmin is 8.1.

Which value should I use for timezone in postgresql.conf? I tried select * from pg_timezone_names to get a list of valid time zone names but it failed with "relation pg_timezone_names does not exist."

Thanks and regards,

Jorge

Try setting your timezone in postgresql.conf - that should override
whatever Windows has for you.

Unless his "8.1" is really 8.1.something-pretty-darn-recent, it's
not going to know about the latest Venezuela DST law change anyway.

This does suggest that we'll need to revisit the win32_tzmap[] list
every so often?
