working postgres client?
Locked
 
|
I'm working on a project that requires access to a postgresql database. The postgres client in Squeakmap seems to fail if md5 password auth is enabled (or at least that's my best guess so far about why it works on my laptop and not the server). I googled for "postgres squeak" and found Jim-Postgresql's client, but it hangs in my 3.10 image when trying to connect. And by hang, I mean command-period does nothing, and I have to force quit. Does anyone have a working pg client that works with modern squeak and modern postgresql? Thanks. -- Randal L.

My Postgesql client is from squeaksource (which is also on package universe). My image is 3.9. I turned off MD5 authentication in postgresql but it is said that installing the Cryptography package will work, too. hope that helps, Norbert |

Hi Randal,
You need to use the PostGresV2 client. You can find it at: http://www.squeaksource.com/PostgresV2.html You should also load the cryptography package at: http://www.squeaksource.com/Cryptography.html to support MD5, which works fine. Also consider using Glorp: http://www.squeaksource.com/Glorp.html to map your Objects to the relational database. Hope that helps, Happy coding!

Randal,
The postgresql client from squeak map / package universes should work, but you also need to load the cryptography package for MD5 support. Travis Randal L.

Another important bit of information: the cryptography package should
be loaded into the image before you install the PostgreSQL driver. It works like a charm with MD5.

If there's any interest we have developed plgins for Windows and Linux for
using the native MD5 functions, at least on Linux it is 100X quicker... > -----Original Message----- > From: [hidden email] > [mailto:[hidden email]]On Behalf Of Ron > Teitelbaum > Sent: 12 October 2007 2:35 PM > To: 'The general-purpose Squeak developers list' > Subject: RE: working postgres client? > > > Hi Randal, > > You need to use the PostGresV2 client.

Hi Gary,
I'm not really interested in calling native functions, but I am interested in getting plugins developed. We have a plugin for SHA1 and for (SecureHashAlgroithm) DES (3DES). Which works well for 3DES-SHA1 SSL. The most important plugins for me would be SHA256, Rijndael (AES), and MD5. So far nobody in the Cryptography Team has had the time to get it done. Any volunteers are definitely welcome!!

Well, I have the code for Windos, not yet compiled. The Linux plugin does
