Use a new connection to connect to a different database., Server: ms, Process: ,Line: 1, Level: 16 tds_fdw doesn't explicitly call the "USE" statement. It calls the dbuse() DB-Library function: https://github.com/GeoffMontee/tds_fdw/blob/master/src/tds_fdw.c#L703 http://www.freetds.org/reference/a00341.html#ga66ea891910f0a357cc78107d6ab7d962 This function does seem to call USE behind the scenes: https://github.com/FreeTDS/freetds/blob/master/src/dblib/dblib.c#L1414 This seems to be a limitation specific to Azure. Are you using that?: http://stackoverflow.com/a/14167073/1732980 It looks like your main option at the moment is to set the default database for the login account on the MS SQL side. Then when the account connects, the database will be automatically selected when the user logs in: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189828(v=sql.110).aspx For this to work, don't supply the "database" name for the foreign table on the PostgreSQL side I'll try to come up with a permanent fix for this at some point. I added this bug to GitHub.
