Subject: Strange error accessing *views* from Linux through ODBC

Message-ID: <3E27FA9A.1030100@bacbuc.dyndns.org> (raw)
Dear list,
Due to a problem related to updates of views through rules, I bit the
bullet and installed Pg 7.3.1. I use Debian (mostly Woody, a. k. a. stable)
; after some attempts to install the Woody version, I installed the sid
versions.
From Windows (I'm using OpenOffice to access a Linux PostgreSQL database
through the experimental ODBC3 drive, Dec 17 2002 version), nothing has
changed : I still can't update a view (I thought the problem I had might be
related to 7.2 not returning the number of rows updated). More on this
later, after I have time to create a log ...
From Linux (Same setup, using the official ODBC driver as packaged by
Oliver Elphick for Debian Sid, a. k. a. unstable along with unixodbc), I
can access tables, but no views. When I try to use a view, OpenAccess
returns me an error message box asserting that "Can't update data contents.
[unixODBC] Error: Attribute "ctid" not found". I don't even get a read-only
access to data.
I am suspecting a serious ODBC problem. Do you have any hints ?
Sincerely,
Emmanuel Charpentier
