Hi,
I'm new to postgresql Unix odbc (iodbc). I am trying to test my
unixodbc connection to a local Postgres DB via the provided
"iodbctest" program and have been unsuccessful in getting a "SQL>"
prompt. Instead, it prints out a "Have nice day" message. Been
working on this problem for a week now and have not come up with
anything close at all.
Searched the web and this forum for any "ideas" as to what is wrong
and can't find anything. Any input or help in pointing me to the
right direction is highly appreciated and invaluable.
Thank you in advance for any help on this!
Pasted below is what is currently downloaded and running:
1) Postgres 7.4.3 installed and have created several databases.
