Hi list! I am using DBLink on a Win32 system running PostgreSQL 8.2 to query a table on another similar system (Win32 / PostgreSQL 8.2). If I query the server with dblink('hostaddr=ip_address ...', ...), it works fine, but if I try to use the hostname instead (dblink('hostaddr=myserver.mydomain.com ...', ...)), I have an error : ERROR: could not establish connection DETAIL: could not translate host name "myserver.mydomain.com" to address: Unknown server error
OK I've got it : I had to use "host=..." instead of "hostaddr=...". Seems obvious now that I know it. Regards -- Arnaud ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
