Thanks for quick answer. Sorry, this was a misstype. We are using 8.4 not 8.8.
  • We are using the OLEDB-Provider for ADO.
  • On 8.2 the connectionstring works, on 8,4 it does not work.
  • The database is local and accessed with localhost.
  • An application, whitch acceses the database via an ODBC-driver works. Only ADO does not work. (ADO error *80004005.* )

hello,

we had installed 8.2 and used a database via ADO with the connectstring

Now we have installed 8.8 and try to use the database with the same connectstring but get the ADO error *80004005.*
There is no PostgreSQL 8.8 - can you tell us what version you are really using (or, if you think it is 8.8, where you got it from?)

Can you connect to the database with the regular command line tools over the network (or a GUI tool such as PgAdmin III), or do you get an error there as well?

The problem may be that it's unable to connect due to a database configuration issue, not an ADO issue.  If you had a DSN that was working before, I wouldn't change it until you've verified that you're actually able to connect to the database properly.

Did you make sure that you made the appropriate changes to postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf on the new system to ensure that users will be able to connect over the network?
