Thread: Error Message: invalid command-line arguments for server process
I am getting an error trying to connect to PostgreSQL db using Visual Basic.NET 2005. The error message is "FATAL: invalid command-line arguments for server process. HINT: Try "postgres --help" for more information." Here is a the snippet of code to create connection. Looking for suggestions on what the problem may be and how to solve it. We just made the switch recently from MSSQL to PostgreSQL 8.2. Private sConnString As String _ = "Provider=PostgreSQL;Addr=127.0.0.1;User ID=postgres;Password=ourpassword;Database=AUDIOCAT" Private objConn As New OleDbConnection(sConnString) Private objCmd As New OleDbCommand Public Function dbOpenConn() As Boolean Try objConn.Open() objCmd.Connection = objConn Catch ex As Exception 'Console.WriteLine(ex.Message) OutputToLog("ERROR (Opening Database Connection): " & ex.Message) frmMain.lblStatus.Text = "Error Occurred! Check application log for details." Return False End Try Return True End Function
