I develop a software product in msAccess, connecting a shared database on SQL Server, on a MS Windows Server machine.
Recently i decided to enhance my product, porting the database to Postgresql 9.0, on an Ubuntu 10.0 Server machine.
My software works on the db mainly connecting tables via ODBC, on the LAN.
Here comes the problem.
If I make a table connection using the Access connection wizard it works.
But this is not enough for my application, since it dynamically connect different schemas tables, according to the project the user wants to open.
Therefore I use a docmd.transferdatabase acLink method, that works perfectly on SQL Server.
Trying to connect Postgresql tables, having solved:
- the postgresql server start,
- listening on the proper port,
- allowing clients on the ip network to acceed,
- authentication problems
(using the MS Administrative Tools ODBC the connection is succesful),
the connection fails, with "3021 Error: no current record".
I tried closing the table's name within quotes, but nothing changes
Some of the connection strings that i tried:
conneTest = "ODBC;DRIVER={PostgreSQL ODBC Driver(UNICODE)};DATABASE=dbname;" & _
"SERVER=VM-UBUSRV-09;PORT=5432;UID=dbuser;pwd=dbpassword;"
conneTest = conneTest + "A0=0;A1=6.4;A2=0;A3=0;A4=0;A5=0;A6=;A7=100;A8=4096;A9=0;" & _
"B0=254;B1=8190;B2=0;B3=0;B4=1;B5=1;B6=0;B7=1;B8=0;B9=1;" & _
"C0=0;C1=0;C2=dd_"
conneTest = "DSN=PostgreSQL30;DATABASE=dbname;SERVER=VM-UBUSRV-09;PORT=5432" & _
"CA=d;A6=;A7=100;A8=4096;B0=255;B1=8190;BI=0;C2=dd_;;CX=1b502bb;A1=7.4"
conneTest = "ODBC;DSN=PostgreSQL30;DATABASE=SSMPTE_;SERVER=VM-UBUSRV-09;PORT=5432;UID=postgres;;" & _
"SSLmode=disable;ReadOnly=0;Protocol=7.4;FakeOidIn"
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acLink, _
"ODBC", _
conneTest, _
acTable, _
"TABLE_NAME", _
"TABLE_NAME"
Thank you so much in advance for any suggestion.
