I am having a heck of a time this problem.  I am trying Talentsoft's
Web+ 4.0 beta.  I cannot get the program to interface with PostgresSQL. 
I have been trying to get the odbc drivers iodbc-2.12 pgodbc-0.08. 
iodbc will not load up and pgodbc won't run without iodbc.  If anyone
can give me any tips or advice please drop me a line.
Here is my system setup.
Linux ELF 2.0.34
gcc version egcs-2.90.29 980515 (egcs-1.0.3 release)
Postgres 6.3.2

I've just spent quite a bit of time getting psqlodbc-0.24 running with
iODBC and an ApplixWare beta. I'm not familiar with pgodbc-0.08, but I
would recommend using psqlodbc instead since it is being very actively
developed on WIN32 platforms and also supports Unix.

I have a version which will compile and run on Linux-2.0.30 (RH4.2) and
can send it to you if you would like. It should be merged with the
Postgres development tree sometime soon. btw, I haven't tried compiling
with egcs yet, but it presumably is not a problem...

   I have successfully installed and used iodbc-2.12 and pgodbc-0.03 (with
some mod's that should have been included in later versions, e.g. 0.08). I have
included my ~/.odbc.ini file below for your information. I am not using
egcs but a public domain multiplatform GUI library called wxWindows
(try web.ukonline.co.uk/julian.smart/wxwin), which include ODBC access
functions. I am also using Postgres 6.3.2 and Linux 2.0.33 (Slackware).

     Please remember to use the -i option on postmaster if you are running
on a different machine :-).



    Hope this helps,
