Greetings,
While configuring ORG_FWD.
I hope you are setting path like server name and absolute path to file on
your network share and network share has appropriate permissions.
'\\remote_server\path\to\file.xlsx' on network share
Create user mapping if required.
check your config through
ogr_fdw_info -s "\\\\remote_server\\path\\to\\file.xlsx" -l
To diagnose the issue you can check permissions, network accessability,
path format should include server name and absolute file path and any
compatability issues.
Regards,
Salahuddin.

Hi,
Getting back to this after a bit. I am still having no luck. I checked
the settings for the postgres windows user between the new and old
servers, and ensure they are matching. The user has full control over
the directory the file I want to connect to is located in.
Here are the results from running ogr_fdw_info:
CREATE SERVER myserver
FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER ogr_fdw
OPTIONS (
datasource '\\coib-gis\City_GIS\Data\Assessor\Current\CityofIB.xlsx',
format 'XLSX');
CREATE FOREIGN TABLE cityofib (
fid bigint,
pn bigint,
ckdigit varchar,
tra integer,
contrctcd integer,
frctint integer,
marstat varchar,
ownstat varchar,
ownname varchar,
mailaddr varchar,
zip integer,
mlchgdt integer,
stsno varchar,
stsstreet varchar,
prpcd integer,
prpdesc varchar,
cvnet integer,
cvland integer,
imps integer,
pprop integer,
applyr varchar,
xcd1 integer,
xamt1 integer,
xcd2 varchar,
xamt2 integer,
xcd3 varchar,
xamt3 integer,
doctype integer,
docno integer,
docdat integer,
mapno varchar,
origcutno integer,
origcutdt integer,
tracutno integer,
tracutdt integer,
redrftno integer,
redrftdt integer,
oldtra integer,
oldpn bigint,
acre double precision,
units integer,
zone integer,
usecode integer,
srcd varchar,
sryr integer,
taxstst varchar,
assmtyr integer,
transdt integer,
yreffct integer,
tlvgarea integer,
bedrms integer,
baths integer,
gstalls integer,
pool varchar,
view varchar,
usqft integer,
asqft integer
) SERVER myserver
OPTIONS (layer 'CityofIB');
When I run the command given above to create the server, I receive the
following error:
ERROR: unable to connect to data source
"\\coib-gis\City_GIS\Data\Assessor\Current\CityofIB.xlsx"
SQL state: HV00N
This same error occurs whether I try to connect to an XLSX or even just
a CSV. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Russell
