I'm using jdbc with 7.2.1 and it works great. (j2sdk 1.4.0 on Solaris and
Linux 2.4.18)
I've also used this pre-compiled one with no problems.
http://jxdbcon.sourceforge.net/download
<http://jxdbcon.sourceforge.net/download>
my connect string is jdbc:postgresql://serverName/dbName Perhaps leaving
out the port number would shorten it.
But then it might not know how to find it?

Subject: [GENERAL] Connexion with jdbc
Hello,
I have try to connect to my database using the org.postgresql.Driver (the
last stable release) but it does not work. The logfile on postgresql server
says that the function pg_encoding_to_char does not exist.
From what I have read, this is due to a problem of version (I'm using the
6.5.3).
I wanted to use the sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver to connect instead.
However, I have the following error:
* If I try to connect to "jdbc:odbc://myServerUrl/myDatabaseName" : The
datasource cannot be found and pilote name is not specified
* If I try to connect to "jdbc:odbc://myServerUrl:5432/myDatabaseName": Data
source name too long! ( it's 29 characters)
Note:
* I'm using jdk1.3.1_03
* My postmaster is running with the -i option.
* I have added the client ip address to the pg_hba.conf file.
* I can connect without problem on a mySql database on the same server
Could anyone help me?
Thanks a lot
Tanguy
ps: I have another server running postgresql on another network. From a
computer on the same network the one I'm using, I can connect to a db on
this server with "jdbc:odbc:databasename", but not from the computer i'm
using. I found strange that I do not have to give a url for the database. If
anyone could give me a reason... Thanks a lot.
