Hi,
I read that it is either neccessary to supply the --enable-odbc option to
the configure script or you can compile that later on by changing into
src/interfaces/odbc and do make and make install there. But I don't even
have this directory. But that is chapter 7 of the 7.2 documentation.
I found some more information, but that was for pgsql 6.x!!
1) You have a working Pgsql installation
- done
2) You have modified pg_hba.conf to allow connections from hosts other than
the server itself
- done
3) You have started pgsql with the i flag
- I tried ./10.pgsql.sh start -i, but that did not help
4) You have created a sandbox database you have create table rights to.
- What is a sandbox db?
- I have granted full access to all dbs I have created.
I installed unixODBC, but I couldn't find the software afterwoods! So, I
don't know how to set up a DSN, just because I don't know how to start the
unixODBC-manager. The unixODBC documentation did not help a bit. I had the
hope whether it is possible to connect locally via odbc.
