Thread: ODBC gives pq_recvbuf: unexpected EOF on client connection
Hi, I'm using ODBC/MS Access and every time my client shuts down I get the log message: pq_recvbuf: unexpected EOF on client connection Is there something I'm doing wrong here? I haven't been too bothered by this but I do wonder... Many thanks for any tips! -Cedar (yes I did copy the JDBC post.. ;)

Not you, the ODBC driver --- it's just unceremoniously closing the socket connection without being polite enough to send the disconnect message (a single 'X', I think) first. Somebody ought to fix that, but it's not a real high priority. There's no bad side-effects other than cluttering the postmaster log. > (yes I did copy the JDBC post.. ;) I haven't looked at the JDBC code, but evidently it's equally impolite. regards, tom lane

This was fixed in 6.5.3 as long as the client doesn't kill the JVM prematurely. As long as client code calls the Connection's close() method then the backend will get the X message. Problem is most people conveniently forget to put close() in their code. Peter
