Thread: Postgres 7.3 and phpPgAdmin

Postgres 7.3 and phpPgAdmin

From
"Robert M. Meyer"
Date:
We just upgraded our development server (Redhat 7.1) to PostgreSQL 7.3
(last night) and have been using phpPgAdmin for various functions.  It
seems that phpPgAdmin-2.4.2 (Released in July) doesn't work completely
with PostgreSQL 7.3.  Our big problem is that trying to do an SQL dump
of a database generates a page of errors indicating that it can't find a
number of system tables.  I would guess that 7.3 may have changed things
just a bit :-).

So, does anyone know if there are patches/new versions of phpPgAdmin
running around anywhere?  Most of our users are running Windows so we
need a web based tool for this.

Thanks, much...

Cheers!

Unfortunately I don't think I can lend any good news to the situation.
The phpPgAdmin code base, being based on phpMyAdmin, was too hairy to
try and add schema support in for 7.3, so we decided to do a complete
rewrite of the system, which we dubbed as "webdb". The framework of the
webdb code base is in place; I've functioned mainly on adding base
features and 7.2.x compatibility, Chris K-L has been the main driver on
7.3 compatibility; but both of us have been swamped with other
commitments so we've not been able to finish the functionality. I'm
hoping this situation will change, but even after several calls for
help, we've not gotten much help from outside developers, so I can't
really give you an eta. If you would like to help out, webdb is
available from our cvs tree (http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=37132)
and we'd be happy to answer any questions you have.
