Thread: Free PostgreSQL Database Hosting - Needs Beta Testers
I am looking for PostgreSQL users to beta test the following free database hosting service: http://superid.dyndns.org:8080/freesql/index.php I've done a fair amount of testing myself, but I need a few more people to work the rest of the bugs out. I'd be grateful if people would do the following: 1) create an account and database 2) remotely connect via ODBC or other means 3) insert and select data 4) report results to me, good or bad I'm happy to offer this free service (the free MySQL hosting is going over well so far) and I hope people find it useful. Take the poll, and offer suggestions too! Regards, Gary H.

It looks pretty slow, but it could be my connection. And I think you should put high on the todo list the obscurement of other users' DB from phpMyAdmin... /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ Fabrizio Ermini Alternate E-mail: C.so Umberto, 7 faermini@tin.it loc.

Take the poll, and offer > suggestions too! cool. i create database "trillich" and granted public select access; two tables, one view, all worked like a charm. (all via the php interface -- i tried from my own command line "psql -h superid.dyndns.org -p 5432 -u trillich" but i kept winding up pointing to my own server (probably my own internal firewall snag). looks clean from here... :) -- will@serensoft.com http://newbieDoc.sourceforge.net/ -- we need your brain! http://www.dontUthink.com/ -- your brain needs us!

I'd be grateful if people would do the psql -h superid.dyndns.org -p 5432 -U gravsql psql: No pg_hba.conf entry for host 24.132.0.101, user gravsql, database gravsql z.
