Snow Leopard and PG 8.4 problems....

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Gaaaah,

Last week postgresql was working fine, yesterday I upgraded to
Snow Leopard...

Everything seemed to be working and then I tried to move some
rows to another machine via dblink.

I am getting a variety of failures on dblink_connect..

mbp is my main machine let me connect to my home server ( named server )

[mbp:~]$ psql -Ulevan -hserver
psql (8.4.0)
Type "help" for help.

levan=# select dblink_connect('host=mbp.skynet user=levan dbname=levan password=foobar');
ERROR:  could not establish connection
DETAIL: could not translate host name "mbp.skynet" to address: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

levan=# select dblink_connect('host=mbp user=levan dbname=levan password=foobar');
ERROR:  could not establish connection
DETAIL: could not translate host name "mbp" to address: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

levan=# select dblink_connect('host=mbp.localdomain user=levan dbname=levan password=foobar');
ERROR:  could not establish connection
DETAIL: could not translate host name "mbp.localdomain" to address: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

levan=# select dblink_connect('host=192.168.1.80 user=levan dbname=levan password=foobar');
 dblink_connect
----------------
 OK
(1 row)

The name resolution appears to be buggered. Now server is almost my local network name server and it appears to be working just fine ie I can use Safari send mail etc...

Now if I hop on to server and connect to mbp psql and try to use dblink...

[mbp:~]$ ssh server
Password:
Last login: Sat Aug 29 11:10:48 2009 from mbp.localdomain
server:~ jerry$ psql -Ulevan -hmbp
psql (8.4.0)
Type "help" for help.

levan=# select dblink('host=server user=levan dbname=levan password=foobar');
ERROR:  function dblink(unknown) does not exist
LINE 1: select dblink('host=server user=levan dbname=levan password=...
               ^
HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.

***************************
Everything was working fine till the installation of Snow Leopard.

I tried to rebuild dblink but got many bizarre errors.

I tried to rebuild postgresql 8.4 but there were problems with python and warnings about perl
the build did not succeed.

Anyone else having problems?

Jerry
