Hi Andreas,
I'm struggling to have connection using service work here on windows. 
I tried putting a pg_service.conf file in AppData/postgres dir, or on a
location defined by environnement variable with no success. 

The content seems ok , but client (pgadmin, qgis) do not locate that file
correctly. Do you have any hint for us? Pg doc is light, and the web is
almost totally empty on that.

Régis
