I'm trying to copy the data in a MySQL database over to a PostgreSQL
database. I'm running:
- mysql 3.23.57-nt under Windows XP
- PostgreSQL 7.3.3 under FreeBSD 4.8
- pgAdmin II 1.4.12
Here are my steps:
1 - Connect to my pg db
2 - Select menu item Plugins -> Database Migration Wizard
3 - click on ODBC
4 - From the Datasource drop down list box, select the ODBC database
5 - type in the user name (root)
5 - click on Next
It it then that I get the lovely Windows message "pgAdmin II has
encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for
inconvenience."
If I suppy the wrong user name (e.g. rooted), I get an access denied
message.
Through the control panel, I have confirmed that the ODBC connection
works by clicking on the "Test Data Source" button. I've taken scree
shots of the various ODBC settings:

Any ideas? Thanks.
