Thank you for the reply. That cleared up the issue. Have installed BONE on my BeOS Max and now all my networking works OK (unlike before), and I was able to install Apache/PostgresSQL/PHP and finally get to see it work. Now I can even do an ifconfig and see what my networking just like in BSD or Linux. This defenitely seems like the part that was missing. Thanks again.

I'm pretty new to all this so here is my ignorant question:
What version BeOS has or comes with BONE? Does my 5.0.3 Pro not have it? Does BeOS Max not have it? Can it be downloaded from anywhere and installed? Is it part of another version? Thanks.

Most likely the reason it isn't working is that you are trying to use it on a net_server system instead of one with BONE. I believe it works just fine on a system with BONE (I believe I tried it months back), so I think this is the issue you're having. I don't think there is any chance that it will ever be built for net_server, so if you want to try it, you may have to try it on a system with BONE.

Did anyone ever get to resolve the issue with the "missling library" error that will not let PostgreSQL (downloaded from bebits) start? I have tried it in BeOS 5.0.3 Pro and in Max PE to no avail. Seems like the issue has been hanging for a couple of years without getting resolved. Is there a way to get postgres to work on BeOS? Appreciate any reply.

i was home and finally had some spare time so i put on some music and started on nmap, then postgresql, did those and then got stuck on snort 2.20 (major issue) and stuck on apache 2.0.52 (hopefully a minor issue) and started on postgresql 7.4.6 (i stopped after fixing 2 issues - had quite a few to go) and then went to bed ;-)
hopefully i'll have some more time this weekend as i have 4 days off. we'll see ;-)

Hey,
with the move to the Be Clones moving along I'm wondering if any one is activly working on this still. I see V8 is coming along in the main tree with V8 Beta3 being the current.
Is this still being maintained? I'm looking to build a light weight POS system ontop of this so I was hoping even though I know the "webserver" team had called it quits, I hoped that maybe soon someone else would step things up for apache, php, & postgreSQL.

when you do a createdb, you need to do this:
createdb -h localhost
OR
createdb -H 127.0.0.1
alternately, you can add a DBHOST=127.0.0.1 to your USERBOOTPREFS or whatever it's called (I'm not in beos atm)
this can all be foubd out at mooooo's site, which is the homepage button on the side of the app listing. This is not a problem with the app, this is the way it is run...

when you shutdown postgresql there will probably be some postmasters still running (see other comments on here).
you'll have to manually kill those as it is likely they are still running from before.
i'll repackage this so that the default postgresql.conf has tcp_sockets = true so that it works straight without having to play around. If zlib isn't on BeBits i'll include that too.

you need to start PostgreSQL with internet sockets:
postmaster -i &
or edit the postgresql.conf and uncomment and change the tcp_socket = true
so zlib was the problem?

2 things:
1 - The multiple instances are a feature. Threads are not much used in the Unix world yet so they usually just fork() various copies of the program instead of creating multiple threads.
2 - The fact that only one process is closed when you use "pg_ctl stop" is, indeed, a bug. The problem seems to be PostgreSQL changed the way it starts up and the BeOS port in the source tree was not updated (yet) to take this new method in account.
3 - I contacted Cyril about it but he is probably too busy. I will mail him again.
Anyway, I do have some ideas about the problem and, in fact, I can point the exactly place it "breaks" in the BeOS port. Maybe we could work this out ourselves. What do you think moooo?
Of course even if we fix it we will have to send the code to Cyril so he can commit it to the PostgreSQL tree.

Ok, I've got postgresql to run fine with the 'postmaster -i &', but there is one thing I don't understand. Why does this start up three instances of postmaster. Check e.g. 'ps' or processcontroller. Furthermore when I quit with 'pg_ctl stop' only one of these instances is removed. Anyone?

is it worth one? i think not. It is super quick and has yet to fail me.
i'm not the maintainer - that's Cyril - and he does a fantastic job at keeping this up to date.
I just compile it, package it up and host the packaged binary.
if you voted this way to get your app in the top 10, well done. It worked. I'm not really that concerned, but some people DO take it badly.
Remember we are giving you guys'n'gals things like this for free. Some of us (like me) actually pay a sh!tload of money out each month to host these files for you.
Think about that next time you vote for anyone's app on here.

AFAIK, Cyril is the one responsible for the BeOS support under PostgreSQL. I didn't see any mention to him and I guess he deserves that.
Also, it should be pointed out that there were some changes in the PostgreSQL sources that make some weird stuff happen (like "pg_ctl stop" not stoping all processes as it should) and Cyril will be working on getting it fixed in the following weeks.

i now have a system to test fresh packages to hopefully eliminate things like this.
i suspect i have linked in a library that you might not have....possibly libdl.
i've been running 7.30 for a few weeks now and it seems ok.
i shall create a 7.30 package tonight and update BeBits after testing it on my test system first ;-)

Peter,
I've been trying to get these two to work together, with both your iODBC, my iODBC and UnixODBC and I can't get any of them to talk to Postgresql... which is odd, because I've used the ODBC drivers for Windows to access my BeOS Postgresql system from Access... any ideas? I built my own 7.2.2 after trying yours with the '--enable-odbc --with-iodbc' flags.
Other than that, great to see the latest version spring up so quick!
Cheers
Matt

it's on the projects page http://beos.loved.com/projects/
but i don't want to put it on BeBits until someone can verify it works.
i know that the odbcinst exe doesnt work, but it is possible that the rest of it does.
all odbcinst does is insert the odbc info into the .ini file for you. you can edit that stuff manually anyway so i'm not worried about odbcinst for now....but the rest of it? well...it needs testing i cant test it :(

verrann i didn't take them any further coz they did what i wanted, but i have a few ideas for improving them.
i've got to figure out a couple of things with the CLVListitem from Santas Gift Bag but the plan is to put the results of any query into a grid similar to MS Access. That part is easy, but i have to spend some time working on the selection of data etc etc.
i've figured out how to retrieve the column headings which i can use for the column titles.
the next bit is to add in the database objects into a "tree view" or "outline view" call it what you want.
i'm doing this in my Sybase editor that i play with every now and then.
the PostgreSQL developers documentation is very good and the samples are usable so it makes it a lot easier to get things happening.
another thing i am thinking of doing is writing an "Application Server" which will connect to a PG database and hold open a configurable amount of connections for connection pooling purposes.
This app would accept a BMessage which would/could contain things like the SQL you want to execute and could be called by any Be Application including BeApp CGI exes.
This removes the overhead of opening a connection, running the query, processing the results and terminating the connection into just running the query and passing the resultset or error number back to the client.
takes deep breath.
so yes, the gui stuff is coming along :)
