Hi All,
                I am testing a dblink connection from RDS postgresql database to a remote oracle instance but I am getting could not establish connection error.  Where did I do wrong and please help.

Thank you very much,
Garry

My setup as following:


  1.  Security groups inbound has an entry for the oracle port and remote IP
  2.  Psql statement as following

Create extension dblinnk;
                CREATE SERVER myOradb FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER dblink_fdw OPTIONS (host ‘my remote host IP’, dbname ' myOradb ', port '1521');
               CREATE USER MAPPING FOR PGuser SERVER myOradb OPTIONS (user 'OraUser', password '’mypassword');
               SELECT dblink_connect('myOradb');


ERROR: could not establish connection
SQL state: 08001
Detail: server closed the connection unexpectedly
                This probably means the server terminated abnormally
                before or while processing the request.

As somebody already explained to you, dblink only does
postgres-to-postgres connections.

What you need for this is oracle_fdw.  I do not know how well that's
maintained, but it exists.

​Maintenance aside I'm not sure whether its been whitelisted for use in
RDS.  The OP might need to run an EC2 instance so they can install custom
extensions.
