ODBC - call failed

Hello!

I am trying to link PostgreSQL 8.0 beta tables from Access on Windows 2000.

It errors out with the message:

"ODBC - call failed.

Could not connect to the server.

Could not connect to remote socket. (#101)"


I know that I have to run postmaster with the -i option.

But PostgreSQL is installed as a Windows service.

Is the -i option enabled in this case?


Thanks.
Deepa

You have to edit postgresql.conf and activate the "tcpip_socket" and the "port" and restart (stop and start) the service.
