Hi all. I having an issue with the 8.01.01.02 ODBC driver that is installed via the 8.1.x Windows installer. Whenever there is an error on the connection (eg: trying to execute a sql statement that has a syntax error as an example) the System.Data.OdbcConnection object throws an exception - which is entirely expected. However, the error message returned is "The connection is dead". I have to go into the postgresql log files to try and locate the actual error. The same code used to work (meaning it returned the text of the postgresql error message in the exception) for me with 8.0.x so I'm kind of at a loss as to what has changed that would cause this behavior. Anyone have any ideas whats going on or how I can get back to the 8.0.x behavior? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
