Hello again cdrick,
I believe you should be using the driver
from http://map.squeak.org/package/a8d3ca99-f5f4-45e0-9aa7-100a77b64f45/autoversion/3
You should also load the cryptography
package. You can either load the old one from squeakmap or the newer one from
MCHttpRepository location:
'http://www.squeaksource.com/Cryptography' user: '’ password: ''
You will need a username and password on
squeakSource.
Then load the Cryptography-Core, then the
Cryptography-MD5 latest versions.
The repository address for the PostgreSQL
V2 driver is:
MCHttpRepository location:
'http://www.squeaksource.com/PostgresV2' user: '' password: ''
I have not tried it myself but I know that
Giovanni was going to http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2005-January/087098.html
so maybe he can help with some pointers?
Also I noticed a package on Google (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=postgres+squeak)
http://www.io.com/~jimm/projects/squeak_postgresql/
but I don’t know anything about it.
Hope that helps,

Database connection
Hi again...
I'm triing to connect to a remote postgres db without success...
I've use several framework
***Jim-PostgresSql ***
| client |
client := PSQLClient new database: 'sup_prev'; user: 'web'.
client establishConnection.
client closeConnection.
wich give an unknown message type $# (<- a square - maybe an encoding
problem ?? ) aBiteArray(14)
in PSQLBackendMessage class>>readFrom: with:
... class := FactoryClassDict at: id ifAbsent: [self error: 'unknown message
type ', id printString, ' (', id asInteger printString, ')'
***After, I've tryed PostgresV2***
something like... ( with configuration done on the class side:
buildDefaultConnectionArgs )
|conn|
conn := PGConnection new.
conn .
conn startup.
conn execute: 'select * from experiences'.
conn terminate.
^ resultStream contents.
I get an error saying connection not valid - isConnected returning false :s
I probably missed something...
***After I tryied to use ODBC but without success too... :s I don't
know the dns for postgres...***
Can anyone tell me wich tool(package) to use preferably with postgres ? because
I'm a bit lost at the moment :). Also, if you see what are the problems in my
connections attempts
Thanks for all
Cédrick
