[pgadmin-support] No text for error messages only numbers

2006-12-05 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

Since I have upgraded to version 1.6.1, I do not get error messages text any 
more, only error numbers ! ? !

Is there something to configure to get the text too ?

Re : [pgadmin-support] No text for error messages only numbers

2006-12-05 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Sorry, more details :
I am running PgAdmin III on Windows XP  against a PosgreSQL 8.1 server on Linux 
(Ubuntu 6.06).
I have downloaded PgAdmin  from the PgAdmin web site.

I am indeed talking about the Query tool.
If I type in and run :
select sdfgdfh

I get the following error message:
ERREUR: 
SQL state: 42703

I would suspect it is something to do with localization and languages.
In version 1.4.3,  I get the error message:
ERREUR:  la colonne «sdfgdfh» n'existe pas

The error message is (quite clerarly ;-) !) in French, even though I have set 
up PgAdmin in English Language (File=> Options => General user language: 
(en_us) English .

If anybody could find a way for me to use version 1.6.1 and to get error 
messages (in French or English, I don't care), that would be a great help.

What OS? Did you compile it yourself? I assume you're talking about the 
query tool, in which case you should get output such as:

-- Executing query:
select * form pg_class

ERROR: syntax error at or near "form"
SQL state: 42601
Character: 10


(that's on the History tab).

2006-12-05 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Thanks Dave.

I understand the message comes from the PG server, but if I switch PgAdmin to a 
language, I would have expected LC_MESSAGES to be switched to the same value, 
so I get server messages in the same language ... but that's a completely 
separate issue.

Let me know if there's anything I can do, to get my error messages in clear 
text ... in the mean time, I'll stop making errors ! ;-)
 

Thanks again for your help,

The error message comes from PostgreSQL, so it'll ve in whatever 
language the server sends to pgAdmin.

[pgadmin-support] Backup dialog window: bad size

2006-12-07 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I assume this has been told before ... but as I did not find  anything about it 
in the mailing list archive !

With PgAdmin III 1.6.1 on WinNT SP2.
The Backup dialog window (that pops up when doing Tools ==> backup ...) is 
sized too small: the "..." button (to browse for a file) is not visible (and 
the right side of the group boxes either).
It should be better sized.

And in French language, the options group box is too small: the text for the 
checboxes labels is over the right side of the box.

Extra: a little feature request !
If the directory path for the file (when clicking on the "..." button) could be 
kept from one file generation to another, that would be great !
And if the filename could be *also* kept ... we would get close to perfect  ;-) 
... on that feature !

Hi,

OK, I have found what the problem is !
My databases are in UTF8, with another charset (LATIN1, ...) that works fine.

And I have checked: pgAdmin III v 1.4.3 can display the error messages of a 
UTF8 database (as well as non UTF8).
So something got broken along the way !

Good luck fixing it.

Any estimates for the roll-out of 1.6.2 ?

[pgadmin-support] PG Admin on the command line = pg_dump

2006-12-26 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I would like to automate the generation of a backup script of a schema (which I 
used to perform with PG Admin backup command).
I looked into pg_dump command: it does the job BUT not correctly for me as it 
does not create SERIAL column but INTEGER and then it creates SEQUENCES (I have 
scripts parsing the generated SQL file and looking for SERIAL columns).

I was wondering if it is possible to use command line switches to make the 
fantastic PG Admin III generate a script (without any user interaction).
I could not see any thing in the doc about that, so I am asking you guys and 
gals.

Hi,

I am puzzled why when I use pg_dump I get a script with INTEGER and SEQUENCE 
and when you (i.e. PG Admin) use pg_dump you get a script with SERIAL ?

Do you pass extra undocumented options to pg_dump ?
What version of pg_dump do you use in PG Admin III 1.6.1 ?
(I have used 8.1 and 8.2 with the same results)

pgAdmin just uses pg_dump to generate it's backup scripts, so we don't 
have any command line options to this as we'd just say 'use pg_dump'.

[pgadmin-support] Still no text for error messages only numbers for 1.6.2 (aka the Saga continues)

2007-01-09 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi All (and Guillaume),

Happy new year to all ... with less crazy bugs for everyone than in 2006 (and 
that's including me ... please).



So I have upgraded to the latest and shiny PGAdmin 1.6.2 ... and I still have 
the same problem I had in 1.6.1.

If I have a database set with UTF-8 character set then when I type the 
following (in the query tool window):
sdfhsdfj
I get:
ERREUR: 
État SQL :42601
Caractère : 1

In a query tool with  LATIN1 or SQL_ASCII  characterset, I get:
ERREUR: erreur de syntaxe sur ou près de «sdfhsdfj»
État SQL :42601
Caractère : 1

Which is what I would expect (at least till the PG syntax de not change ;-) ! ).

I do not have this problem with PG Admin 1.4.3, which will write:
ERREUR:  erreur de syntaxe sur ou près de «sdfhsdfj» au caractère 1

Of course, you would have guessed from the error messages that I am in French 
locale for the client (Windows XP SP2) and for the Server (Ubuntu 6.06, PG 8.1).

Let me know if you need more info about this.

[pgadmin-support] Backup file not UTF-8 (introduced bug in 1.6.2)

Hi,

A bug has been introduced in the version 1.6.2: when backing up in a file, the 
file produced is not in UTF-8 format even though it is specified in the 
preferences.

That used to work in 1.6.1

Hi,

But the problem is that using pg_dump does not produce the same file format 
than PG Admin (re: SERIAL, see on of my previous post). So you are using the 
pg_dump routine when I use the command line: it's different anyway with 
different options.

The only thing that's changed in the backup code since 1.6.0 is the
copyright comment and a line of code to center the dialogue over it's
parent.

The culprit is almost certainly pg_dump - try running it from the
command line and see what happens.

Re : Re : Re : [pgadmin-support] Backup file not UTF-8 (introduced bug

2007-01-10 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hurrah !

End of a long story !



I should have read the messages from the backup dialog more carefully, and I 
would have seen the pg_dump command !
And I would have noticed that PG Admin uses its own pg_dump.
So my problems (using pg_dump v8.2 instead of PG Admin: SERIAL replaced by INT 
and SEQUENCES, and going from v1.6.1 to v1.6.2: wrong UTF-8 format) can be 
solved just by using a previous version of pg_dump (the one from PGAdmin 1.4., 
for example) to generate my file.

Sorry for being a pain.
And thanks for solving that problem in the end.

Saying that, as Guillaume suggested, it could be a good idea to be able to 
choose the pg_dump, one wants to use with PG Admin ... but I suppose replacing 
the pg_dump.exe file in the PG Admin directory should do the trick.

How can it not produce the same file format - it calls pg_dump to do the
backup!!

As for the options, pgAdmin shows the command line it uses on the
messages tab when you run the backup so you can easily duplicate what
it's doing.

Objet : Still no text for error messages only numbers for 1.6.2 (aka the Saga 
continues)

Hi All (and Guillaume),


So I have upgraded to the latest and shiny PGAdmin 1.6.2 ... and I still have 
the same problem I had in 1.6.1.

If I have a database set with UTF-8 character set then when I type the 
following (in the query tool window):
sdfhsdfj
I get:
ERREUR: 
État SQL :42601
Caractère : 1

In a query tool with a database set with LATIN1 or SQL_ASCII  characterset, I 
get:
ERREUR: erreur de syntaxe sur ou près de «sdfhsdfj»
État SQL :42601
Caractère : 1

Which is what I would expect (at least till the PG syntax does not change ;-) ! 
).

I do not have this problem with PG Admin 1.4.3, which will write:
ERREUR:  erreur de syntaxe sur ou près de «sdfhsdfj» au caractère 1

Of course, you would have guessed from the error messages that I am in French 
locale for the client (Windows XP SP2) and for the Server (Ubuntu 6.06, PG 8.1).

Let me know if you need more info about this.

Hi,

OK, I have found what the problem is !
My databases are in UTF8, with another charset (LATIN1, ...) that works fine.

And I have checked: pgAdmin III v 1.4.3 can display the error messages of a 
UTF8 database (as well as non UTF8).
So something got broken along the way !

Good luck fixing it.

Any estimates for the roll-out of 1.6.2 ?
(I have read the the particulary annoying bug of empty tables not being 
editable is fixed in 1.6.2)

Hi Christophe,

It does not change a thing !

If I type:
SET client_encoding TO 'LATIN9';
sdfghsdfh;

In 1.6.2, I get:
ERREUR: 
État SQL :42601
Caractère : 37
 
When in 1.4.3, I get :
ERREUR:  erreur de syntaxe sur ou près de «sdfghsdfh» au caractère 1

And in 1.6.2, but LATIN1 character set database, I get:
ERREUR: erreur de syntaxe sur ou près de «sdfghsdfh»
État SQL :42601
Caractère : 37

Let me know, if I can help some more.

Re : [pgadmin-support] Re : Still no text for error messages only

2007-01-15 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Thanks Guillaume, for having a look again.

Last time, you looked: I had 1.6.1 and you were using 1.6.2 (kind of beta: from 
the source), and we thought it will be solved with the new version.
But it's not !

I have done a new test: I create a new db with UTF8, and another with LATIN1.
If I type an incorrect command in a SQL editor connected to the LATIN1 db, I 
get the error message, and when connected to the UTF8 db I get the error 
message only with the number.

Re : Re : [pgadmin-support] Re : Still no text for error messages

2007-01-16 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I have installed a Win32 PG 8.1.5 on my machine and I can not reproduce this 
bug on that server.
So it is server dependant: you knew that already as you could not reproduce the 
bug. ;-)

Still, it is also client dependant, as I get correct error messages with PG 
Admin 1.4.3 (on the other server) ! ? ! ?

The non working server configuration is Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake-installed in 
French) and Postgres 8.1.4:
PostgreSQL 8.1.4 on i486-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc-4.0.gcc-opt (GCC) 
4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)

I did not install Postgres, so I do not know the options used to install it. It 
should be the default install (pretty much): if you need me to give details (a 
conf file or something else). Let me know, and I will provide it.
However, you will have to be fairly precise as I am quite new to PostgreSQL.

OK, I think it would be really helpful to get all informations.

I tried with a 8.2.1 postgresql server that I configured with
  ./configure --prefix=/home/guillaume/pgsql-8.2.1 --enable-nls
I then compiled and installed it
  make && make install

I initialized the cluster :
  initdb -D /home/guillaume/pgsql-8.2.1/data
and created two databases :
  createdb -E LATIN1 dblatin1
  createdb -E UTF8 dbutf8

When I try to execute a wrong query (select * from jkdqlsdjkfhqklsdjh),
I always have the error number and the error string.

Can you give us more details ? for example, which options did you use to
initialize the cluster ?

Regards.

[pgadmin-support] Vacuum nag !

2007-01-18 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I am working on an import of databases, so I keep dropping and re-creating 
schemas, and then populating tables.

Even, if I do a VACUUM ANALYSE on the entire DB, PG Admin will prompt me to 
perform a VACUUM when I use one of the tables populated.
Is this normal ?
I would have thought that considering I have already done a VACUUM ANALYSE, I 
would not need to do it again ! ;-) ... or am I missing something ?

I could check the "don't give me experts advice" in the preferences, but as I 
am quite a newbee in PG, I feel I need them ! ;-)

How do you close pgAdmin? Does it always crash, or only after performing
a specific task?

I have tryed to change the field separators parameter (File ==> Preferences,

It's probably an OOo bug, but I wondered whether there is a solution for this

Re : [pgadmin-support] Copy from Edit data, Paste into OpenOffice Spreadsheet

2007-01-19 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Well, it works for me too ... in english !
It's down to the problem I mentioned in another post: when using the French 
version "Tab" is translated by "Tabulation" and does not produce Tab separated 
file !

I just need to shorten the string from Tabulation to Tab ... and it works even 
in French !
I suppose an easy way to avoid this would be to have a choice of separation 
characters with radio buttons (; , | tab) and the last one with an edit zone to 
be able to type in your own !

Tab works for me using NeoOffice on Mac (NeoOffice is a port of

A reproducable way to crash it would be a huge help!

Re : [pgadmin-support] Crashing v1.6.2 with a syntax error

2007-02-21 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hello Erwin,

I am interested in the part "I get an error message with only the error code".

I have the same problem, however in the rest of your message you do have an 
error message with the error code 
" FEHLER: Fehler »Syntaxfehler« bei »loc«
SQL state: 42601
Character: 1"

How do you achieve this ?

My problem is that, if my database is in UTF-8, I will not get any error 
messages, just the code.
Is that the same for you ? Have you found a solution to have an error message ?
So far we have not been able to reproduce this error: it seems its due to my PG 
server configuration (Ubuntu with French locale), other configurations 
(including on WinXP machine) work fine.

Objet : [pgadmin-support] Crashing v1.6.2 with a syntax error

Hi developers! Hi Dave!


Testing pgAdmin III v1.6.2 rev: 5837, client Win XP, host Debian Sarge, 
PG 8.1.4. / Debian Etch, PG 8.2.1.

I have found a 'reliable' way to crash pgAdmin. Look at the following query:
 select * from loc where loc like 'a%' loc = 'b';
Note the syntax error: "and" is missing in the WHERE clause. If I run 
this from the SQL query dialogue window I get an error message with only 
the error code - but that has been reported before.

FEHLER: Fehler »Syntaxfehler« bei »loc«
SQL state: 42601
Character: 1

However, if I open the edit grid with a filter and enter the faulty 
WHERE clause, pgAdmin crashes.
I have run tests with a variety of tables and operators in PG 8.1.4 and 
PG 8.2.1. Any of the following WHERE clauses triggers a crash.
fld1 like 'a%' fld2 = 'b'
fld1 = 'a%' fld2 = 'b'
fld1 = 'a%' fld1 = '%a%'
...

The "essential" part ist the "%" at the end of the first string.


An observation I have made along the way:
Look at the error message I get from pgAdmin for the following WHERE clause:
loc = '%a' loc = ''
Note that the % is in front this time (does not trigger a crash).

An error has occurred:
FEHLER: Fehler >>Syntaxfehler<< bei >>b<<
Line 1: EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM loc WHERE loc = '0x1.1f9d8ap-997' loc = ''
^
The string containing the character "%" is scrambled in a weird way. The 
caret in the next line points to a seemingly random position.
If I run it from psql, I get a similar error message. Only the string is 
not scrambled, and the caret is in a reasonable position.

event=# select * from loc where loc = '%a' loc = '';
FEHLER:  Fehler »Syntaxfehler« bei »loc« at character 36
ZEILE 1: select * from loc where loc = '%a' loc = '';
^
I have tried to switch the "user language" in the pgAdmin options from 
English to German. To no effect.

It might have to do with locales. From my postgresql.conf:
lc_messages = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

I have tried changing it to:
lc_messages = 'C'

After that the error message was scrambled differently:
loc = '%a' loc = ''

An error has occurred:
ERROR: syntax error at or near "loc"
LINE 1: EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM loc WHERE loc = '0x1.518a0fp-1002' loc 
= ''
^

But it crashes just as well.
loc = 'a%' loc = ''

Erwin

Re : [pgadmin-support] pgadmin as main postgresql GUI interface

2007-02-25 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

my two cents on that interesting thread:
I come from a database developer background.
I have used quite a few tools in the past years on different RDBMs (mainly 
Sybase, MS SQL-Server, and a bit of Oracle).

When I have started using PG at the end of last year, I looked at the tools 
around.
I am quite pleased with PG Admin but I was also looking at other tools of 
easier access for non developer users.

I did not find any thing really satisfying but using OOo connecting with JDBC, 
did the job OK : it is possible to browse through the tables, to create queries 
graphically and to modify tables.
I even used it at the beginning to create queries graphically (when I did not 
the DB well). Today, I do not use it anymore, but some in our team do, and that 
works OK for not too demanding users.
Also you might want to have a look at DB-Visualizer: it's more a developper 
tool but it could work for you too.

Last point (but not least ;-) ! ), we are only using OOo on Windows XP, so I 
don't know about the reliability on AMD with Debian, but the functions should 
be the same.
May be the JDBC connection will solve some of your troubles.

Thanks, I should check the current state of knoda.  Last time I tried it
~1 yr ago, it allowed only minimal functionality to interact with
PostgreSQL.  Kexi invariably crashes in my system (AMD64) when doing
things with PostgreSQL.  I tried rekall during the last few days, but it
crashes soon after connecting to a database.  Some of these problems may
be happening only in AMD64.  Indeed, Debian's Openoffice.org packages are
very recent, but are already more stable than the apps mentioned above.
However, it also crashes frequently during connections with PostgreSQL (or
MySQL) connections and, again, functionality is very limited.
Particularly, I'd like to have some GUI do something like M$ Access'
relationship.

In the meantime, I've also tried to figure out how to use my old *.mdb
files through ODBC directly.  Basically, using unixODBC to connect to the
*.mdb from a *nix app (say GNU R for stats analysis).  I've been using
Codeweavers' Crossover as I migrate things over to PostgreSQL, and this
plan seems possible:

http://www.codeweavers.com/support/docs/wine-user/config-odbc

although I haven't yet understood the last step of their configuration
guidelines.

I suspect you are having the same problem as I have.
For me, when the db is set with UTF8 charset I get only error numbers, but on

Hi Albin!

Most interesting, especially as your setup looks much like mine. And I 
do see error messages.
cc-ing Dave and Laurent as they might take special interest in your 
case. So I keep it in English.

Some more information might be useful:
encoding of the database?-- \l command in psql or select the 
database node in pgAdmin and read from the SQL pane.
client_encoding?-- show client_encoding;
"German as default language" in pgAdmin? Or in postgresql (-> 
postgresql.conf)?
Way of connecting? Via TCP/IP to port 5432 or some other method?
And maybe the setting in your postgresql.conf might be of interest.

BTW, backports.org has updated to postgresql 8.1.8 a couple of days ago. 
You may want to apt-get update & upgrade ..

Erwin

It would be very helpful if, when running a 15K line sql script and
errors are encountered, the cursor could jump to the line in question
so that it would be apparent where the problem is. Perhaps each line
could be highlighted as it was executed, and the window could scroll
to follow. The current behaviour is to add a dot to the left of the
problem line, but it doesn't really stand out enough when paging
through the script at high speed.

[pgadmin-support] Changing owner objects

2007-03-09 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

Is there an easy way (in one go) to change the owner of all database objects 
with PG Admin ?

I am creating  a schema with a script that assign the objects owner to login (I 
mean conection role) A .
Then I switch the schema owner to login (/conection role) B.

But the objects are still owned by A.
Is there an easy way in PG Admin to change the owner obejcts from A to B ?

I have created a little script doing this but it's a shame I can not do this 
easily in PG Admin.
(because my script is still a bit of a manual process as I don't know the PG 
database well enough to have a completely automatic script).

May be, we changing the schema owner, PG Admin could prompt whether the schema 
objects owner should be changed as well (for each objects).

Re : [pgadmin-support] import from csv

2007-04-03 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi David,

I have not seen any replied to that ... so here I go.

No, there's no other option than psql AFAIK when using the COPY order with the 
data in the same file (COPY ... FROM STDIN).
Dave explained before, that COPY uses the console and the PG Admin III edit 
tool is not a console app but a window app.

But if you use a file and that file is on your PG server you can use the syntax,
COPY my_table FROM '/home/me/data/my_file.csv' CSV;

That will work but you will need to have the file on the same machine as the 
Postgres Server (that's why I put a Unix file name but that will work on 
Windows too).

[pgadmin-support] PG Admin talks to me ... at last !

2007-05-09 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi Dave, Guillaume and All,

Some of you (Dave & Guillaume) may remember I had a problem with PG Admin III 
1.6, that did not display error messages (only the code but not the message it 
self) when PG Admin III 1.4 and psql will display the full error message.

After a bit of investigation with Guillaume we defined it was down to my server 
configuration (PG 8.1 on Ubuntu 6.06) but could not find what was wrong.

It looks like it was a locale configuration problem.
Last week, I had an upgrade of the locales package and then of PostgreSQL 
(going to 8.1.9): as a result my PostgreSQL would not run anymore.

After a lot of looking around I realised the error came from the locale 
definition, for some reason the collate order seems not to be defined in 
french. Hence with a definition of /etc/environement like 
LANGUAGE=fr_FR
LC_MESSAGES=fr_FR
LC_COLLATE=POSIX
LANG=fr_FR

Not only I did not get any errors with my Linux commands, and PostgreSQL will 
start BUT also I now have the error messages (in english) from the PG Admin 
Query Tool ! ! 
HURRAH ! ! HURRAH ! !  HURRAH ! ! 

I don't understand why the locales definition on the server might change 
something in the way PG Admin display error messages (when others like PG Admin 
1.4 and psql are not bothered) ... but it looks like it does !

Anyway, after being a pain for a while (in particular for Guillaume and Dave), 
I wanted to share my joice with you guys ... and that might help somebody else 
in the future.

Thanks to all who helped me fixing this


Have fun and ... sorry for the long email,

[pgadmin-support] List to Father Christmas

2007-05-22 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

As
I have managed to get error messages displaying correctly in PG-Admin
(thanks to a correct configuration on the PG Server), I have switched
to version 1.6.3, and I am sending this request feature list (I know
it's not Christmas anymore, Easter is already gone passed ... but I
always hope).

A bit of background about me:
I have been
working in the database for more than 10 years, doing consultancy work
and working for an editor of database tools (CAST). I have been mainly
working with Sybase and SQL-Servers (a bit with Oracle) and recently
with Derby and PostgreSQL ;-) !
All that to say, I have used quite a
few tools to work with databases in many configurations at many sites
... but always, the same ideas are coming back ! ;-)


My feature request list:

A/ Editor

 A-1/ Search & replace Cancel
The "Cancel" button should be "Close": as hitting it does not cancel anything 
but just close the window.
By
the way in the French version, the second label "Remplacer par" is
slightly too long, and overides the begining of the text field box.

 A-2/ History results
Keeping the results of the query would be useful (as an option).
In particular, for the next point !

 A-3/ History navigation
Being able to navigate (previous/next) through the history of the requests 
typed in, would be really useful.
That's a feature I used to have in a previous tool and I missed it a lot.


B/ Table Editor

 B-1/ modify new column
It's
really annoying that after creating a new column but still in the table
editor, it's not possible to modify it (modify button greyed out).
The
typical thing is creating a new column not null, and entering a lengthy
comment on the column. Then when I click OK on the table editor it's
complaining that there are null values on that column (of course, I
have just created it) so I want to correct the column definition (to
make it NULLable for example) ... BUT I CAN'T ! ! ! I have to delete
the column and then to create it again ! :-(


C/ Result set / Edit Data Windows

 C-1/ INSERT INTO Copy/Paste
I
would like to copy lines from the data grid, and paste them into the
SQL command windows as an INSERT INTO. May be a special COPY could do
this.


 C-2/ Close all Edit data windows
It will be great to be able to close all the Edit Data windows in one command 
(File ==> Close All Edit Data)

 C-3/ Edit Data window title
The
title of the Edit Data windows is note very helpful: it's too long and
the very meaningful information (the table name) is at the end. So when
I browse through my many EditData windows opened (see previous remark
;-) !), all I can see is the name the application, the name of the
server and that's it. When I say browsing through my EditData windows,
I mean either cycling through applications with Alt+Tab or hovering the
icons in the task bar. And the text I get is typically:
pgAdmin III Edit Data - Server ServNm (servnm:5432) - my_database_name_
when I would like to see
pgAdmin III Edit - table_name - my_database_name_ - ServNm
(Note:
The names table_name, my_database_name_, ServNm are quite
representative in length of what I used on the many projects I have
worked on in more than 10 years)
To me I don't see, the point of having the full Server ServNm (servnm:5432): 
ServNm is enough.
May
be a solution will be to have the name configurable via preferences ?
(in the long term, but in short term changing the order would be nice)

 C-4/ Edit Data in Table Tab 
It will be nice to have an extra tab in the table view (next to Properties, 
Statistics, Dependencies, Dependents): Edit Data.
That would be what we get when doing View Data ==> View Top 100 rows on that 
table.
That will be really quicker when looking up data on a few tables.
If performance is an issue for some people, that could be an option to turn on 
or off.

 C-5/ new IDENTICAL Edit Data window
Asking
confirmation before opening a new IDENTICAL Edit Data window, would be
nice (and offering to switch to the existing as an alternative).
As
the feature request C-4 is not already implemented, I often open many
data windows to read the tables content. As I don't always remember
what's already opened (age is not helping ;-) !), I open several times
the same data windows !


Thanks for reading that far ! ;-)

[pgadmin-support] Edit Data windows title [aka RE: List to Father Christmas]

2007-05-24 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Of course the port number is essential BUT at the moment the Edit Data windows 
title is of the form:
MyServerName (HostRef:PortNumb) - dbName - tableName
(note that I changed the notation from my previous post to try and be clearer)

However the point (to me) of giving a name to a connection (MyServerName) is to 
avoid the need for the information HostRef:PortNumb (and login): it's up to the 
user to give meaningfull name (to the connections) to be able to differentiate 
connections on the same host with different port numbers and/or different 
logins.

You raised a couple of interesting points. Just a quick comment here:
the port number is essential if you have several database clusters
running on different ports on the same server (as I do).

[pgadmin-support] Connection names and Query Windows

2007-05-24 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

(While talking of connection names, see other post "Edit Data windows title")

I just realised the connection name was not used at all in the Query window.
That's more than a shame because if I want to use another connection, a little 
window pops up and offer to change database with a dropdown of all database 
names (so far so good ;-) ! ) BUT also to change connection.
It could be really interesting to change connections however the little pop up 
window offers a drop down with a list of hostReference:PortNumber. As I have 
many connections on the same server with different logins, this is useless to 
me as I see many times the same thing. I would have prefered to see the 
ConnectionName given in the connection window.

By the way, the same apply for the Query window title instead of  seeing 
"databaseName on hostRef:PortNumb" I would prefer to see "databaseName on 
ConnectionName". Then it's up to the user to manage the connection in a 
sensible maner.

[pgadmin-support] Feature Request: Rename DB in pgAdmin

2007-05-24 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

Another feature request:
I would like to be able to rename a database by right clicking on a database 
and choosing Rename from the context menu (which does not exist right now).

I know I can do the same thing by opening a query window and writing a ALTER 
DATABASE ... RENAME TO ...
command, but that would seems a nice command to have (particularly when 
developing and moving database around).

[pgadmin-support] pg_dump: ALTER SEQUENCE ... OWNED in 8.1

2007-06-18 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi All,

I have a table with a sequence.
When I backup the table I get the following code (among other things):
...
ALTER SEQUENCE documents_doc_id_seq OWNED BY documents.doc_id;
...

However my server is PG 8.1 and this is 8.2 syntax.
I understand pgAdmin runs a standard pg_dump but I would expect it to run a 
version compatible with my server ! ? !

Re : [pgadmin-support] pg_dump: ALTER SEQUENCE ... OWNED in 8.1

2007-06-19 Thread Laurent ROCHE
OK, I understand that.

May be that's a pg_dump issue: it should be compatible with the server it 
connects to, and not to its own version ?

Still meanwhile I would think pgAdmin should allow installing other pg_dump 
executable. And it should switch from one to another to be able to generate a 
correct code, according to the server used.
There could be different installer: one with only the latest tools and another 
one with all compatible tools versions to be able to work correctly on 
different servers !

That's right.

And bundling some releases has a cost. pgAdmin's package would be much
more heavy. One way we could try is to put the other pg_dump releases on
other packages and let the user chooses which one he wants to use. But,
GUI won't be easy.

At least, you can try with a 8.1 pg_dump release. (please, be sure to
copy your existing pg_dump before anything).

Regards.

Using many pg_dump in pgAdmin (aka Re : Re : [pgadmin-support] pg_dump: ALTER SEQUENCE ... OWNED in 8.1)

2007-06-19 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

Just to clarify what I mean.
I am quite happy (or should I say: not too unhappy) to juggle with different 
version of pg_dump in my scripts.
If that's the way it has to be, that's the way it has to be.
See point A, below.

But to me pgAdmin is a tool that must be easy to use.
Hence, as it seems the rule of pg_dump usage is "if I connect to 8.1 server, I 
must use pg_dump 8.1; if I connect to a 8.2 server, I must use a 8.2 server; 
...". There should be an option for doing that automatically: I should not need 
to switch from a pg_dump to another when I switch servers.

So what I have in mind is:
 - default installation: use pgAdmin pg_dump
 - activate multi-pg_dump mode: give a directory where there's a tree with a 
directory for each server version used. And each directory contains the 
matching (to the directory name) pg_dump version.

This way, the standard install is the same.
But if I need to connect to different servers with different versions, I don't 
need to keep switching from one pg_dump to another all the time: pgAdmin will 
do it for me.
I understand that's quite a lot of work to be done, but on a user perspective, 
that's the painless of doing it ... well, at least on my humble opinion, but I 
assume other users might have other views on the subject.

** Point A **
Nope, just that pg_dump should generate code compatible with the server it 
connects too.
I was told once on the PG list that pg_dump aim is to be able to backup and 
restore, with the newer version of the tool, that does not work on an older 
server.

[pgadmin-support] Wish list and Doc Errors

2007-10-18 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi All,

Following quite a few days using pgAdmin III (1.6.2 or 1.6.3 not sure) in a 
location with no internet connection, I have a few remarks ... plus a couple of 
questions about pgAgent which I have experimented for the first time.
I know this is not really good timing considering you are busy with 1.8 but the 
first remark makes sense for that new release (the rest can wait).


* Having the documentation for the latest PosgreSQL version will be nice.
I know why you've decided not to deploy the PG doc anymore (see 
http://www.pgadmin.org/archives/pgadmin-support/2007-08/msg00072.php), but when 
working not connected (e.g. on a laptop without internet connection)
 it's still nice to have some documentation ... even if it's not the version 
one should want.
As a trade off just having some documentation is nice. I understand from your 
post that getting the PG help file is time consuming : you could just have a 
pointer to the help web version of the latest PG version (installed locally)
May be we could have the choice of: a link to the web site for the 
documentation matching the version of PG where PGAdmin is actually connected 
to, or the latest PG installed locally ? ! ?


* pgAgent questions ?

 - Is pgAgent suitable to use in a production environment or is it just a 
development tool ?


* pgAgent : suggestions (feature requests)

 - A "run now" function will be interesting, e.g. an extra command in the right 
click menu.
 - Wizard to install the pgAgent (instead of running a script).
The wizard could create a set
 of "standard" jobs (disabled) to use as exmaples/templates, e.g. maintenance 
(VACUUM and REINDEX), backup (dump).
 - Defining a default database at the job level instead of the step level. Then 
to be able to copy/paste the job and just change the db name (to run the same 
thing on other db). Also defining a db_name macro to be able to reuse the name 
in the SQL produced (e.g. for REINDEX DATABASE db_name).
Even better than the copy/paste would be to define a list of databases (instead 
of one) so the very same jobs can be ran on different dbs (of course one after 
the other).
This would be very useful for maintenance jobs for instance.
 - check all and uncheck all buttons for the three lists of schedule Days tab.
 - when clicking on a step, one should see the code in the SQL pane (in 
particular when this is SQL ... but that would not hurt to display the script 
command as well).


* Translation Errors

 - Sequence Start in French Version
When editing a SEQUENCE the START value is translated by "Valeur Actuelle" 
which roughly translated would be "Last value", I would think a better 
translation should be "Prochaine valeur" (i.e. "Next Value") or "Valeur de 
départ" (i.e. "Start Value").


* Errors in
 pgAgent Documentation
A few mistakes in the documentation spotted, with corrections suggestions !

 - pgAgent Installation

   . Database setup
2nd paragraph:
Once created, connect to the new database, and open the SQL tool.
should be replaced by
Connect to the "postgres" database (once created if needed), and open 
the SQL tool.

   . Service installation on Windows
Usage:

  "C:\Program Files\pgAdmin III\pgAgent" REMOVE 
  "C:\Program Files\pgAdmin III\pgAgent" INSTALL  [options] 


should be replaced with:
Usage:

  %PG_AGENT_EXE% REMOVE 
  %PG_AGENT_EXE% INSTALL  [options] 

Where %PG_AGENT_EXE% is the executable file of pgAgent.
 Depending on your installation, it could be:
SET PG_AGENT_EXE="C:\Program Files\pgAdmin III\pgAgent.exe"
for a pgAdmin III classic installation.
OR
SET PG_AGENT_EXE="C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.2\bin\pgAgent.exe"
for a PostgreSQL 8.x server classic installation.


 - pgAgent Jobs

  . Second phrase
To configure jobs on your server, browse to the database in which the 
pgAgent database objects were created using pgAdmin.
Should be replaced with:
To configure jobs on your server, browse the server on which the pgAgent 
was installed (script run on postgres database).

Re : [pgadmin-support] Support for older servers

2007-11-16 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi, 

My 2€: as long as the last version supporting PG 7.x is easily downloadable 
from the web ... I don't think that till be a problem; for the users.

It's just for you guys (and the PG people), to know whether this is acceptable 
considering pgAdmin is packaged with PG (Windows version).
In that case, you might end up packaging a pgAdmin not supporting PG 7.x which 
is not yet deprecated.

Objet : [pgadmin-support] Column names in view

Hi all,

A funny one I see from time to timeI have one particular view
 which, 
when I click "View data", doesn't show up the column names in pgAdmin. 
It (pgAdmin) shows the names in two other views in the same database 
without any problem.

SELECTing from the view in psql shows the column names, as does 
SELECTing in the query tool.

There's nothing special about this view that I can see - it joins 5 
tables together, and one column is calculated in the view (and given an
 
alias also).

I can send a dump of the database if it's any use - it's a development 
one, and so quite small (160kb zipped).

Anyone else see this? I'm using pgAdmin 1.8 on Windows XP SP2, and PG 
8.2.5 on the same machine. I seem to recall a bug along these lines in 
an earlier version of pgAdmin

[pgadmin-support] Reporting ?

2008-01-23 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I am trying to generate reports for my database.

I have never used this before so I might be mising the obvious.

I would like to generate what I would call a full report : for each table of 
the database, the comment on the table and for each field the definition, the 
comments and dependency.

From what I have understood there's not a single report providing this.
More over, if I want to get this information for all the tables in the 
database, I have to generate 2 or 3 reports for each table as there is no way 
to generate a report for a group of tables.

Is there a way of doing this with pgAdmin III (I am using v 1.8.1) ?

If not any other tool that I could use to perform this ?

I don't know about other tools, but the pgAdmin reporting is more or
less designed as an HTML 'screen dump', so only really allows you to
report on the details of the currently selected object. Unfortunately
we've got to the stage now where keeping up with all the cool features
people want is going to take much more developer time than we actually
have :-(

Re : [pgadmin-support] Character encoding conversion

If I were you (actually that's what I did whne I had the same problem), I will

On windows you will find that text editors like TextPad and Scite (which runs

[pgadmin-support] Comments on column

2008-03-06 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

There is a little bug in pgAdmin III 1.8.2 on Windows XP (at least).

If one creates a new column with comments by opening the properties of an 
existing table, then going to Columns tab and clicking the Add button, the 
comments will NOT be saved.
However, by adding a column directly (e.g. right click on the table from the 
object browser, "Add an Object ==> Add a column ..."), the comments WILL be 
saved.

And if the column already exists and we add a comment to the existing column, 
either directly (right-clik on the column) or via the column tab of the table 
window, the comments will be saved.

I hope this is clear.

That should already be fixed for 1.8.3:

[pgadmin-support] FR: DROP column on CASCADE

2008-03-06 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

A Feature Request: as we can perform a DROP ... CASCADE on some objects, it 
will be nice to be able to do so on columns as well.
I am talking of adding a new entry on th right clikc on columns that will 
generate code like:
ALTER TABLE my_table DROP COLUMN my_column CASCADE

[pgadmin-support] Adding columns NOT NULL

2008-03-07 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

There is a little anomaly in the way adding an extra column is treated in 
pgAdmin III 1.8.2.
... particularly if this is a NOT NULL column.

When adding the column my_col with a DEFAULT value, the code generated will be:
ALTER TABLE my_table ADD COLUMN my_col boolean;
ALTER TABLE my_table ALTER COLUMN my_col SET DEFAULT false;

This works fine ... as long as I don't insert columns with NOT NULL property.
In which case, I SUPPOSE it generates:
ALTER TABLE my_table ADD COLUMN my_col boolean NOT NULL;
ALTER TABLE my_table ALTER COLUMN my_col SET DEFAULT false;

This will not work, because the column is created with no default (hence no 
values) and does not support NULL values, hence creation fails.

** In pgAdmin, adding an extra column with NOT NULL property is impossible ! **

So I would suggest to generate the code:
ALTER TABLE my_table ADD COLUMN my_col boolean NOT NULL DEFAULT false;

Which does work !
And that allows to create a column with not NULL values, in one operation, and 
more importantly with the column populated.
At the moment, to perform the same operation I have to
 - create the column, with NULL values.
 - update the table to populate the column
 - modify the column to NOT NULL
... or write my-self the ALTER TABLE statement !

[pgadmin-support] For the PG experts

2008-06-16 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I have posted this on the pg main list ... and as I had no sensible answers, I 
am trying here.
Also, it's likely someone knows the answer as you need to get this info to 
display it in pgAdmin ! 

I would like to write a request where I would get the table name and column 
name of a sequence. I have been looking at the sytem table and could not link 
the sequence from pg_class to a table (and even less to a column).

Any ideas ?

[pgadmin-support] pgAdmin, PG 8.2 and Ubuntu 7.10

2008-08-22 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I have made an install of PostgreSQL on Ubuntu 7.10 with package: it installs 
PG 8.2.

I have installed pgAdmin too but it installs pgAdmin 1.4 ... is this normal ?
Is there a way to get pgAdmin 1.8.x by a package on Ubuntu 7.10 ?

Just looking at http://www.pgadmin.org/download/ubuntu.php,
it seems that it's needed to alter the source.list file .
Why is this not done by default and why Ubuntu still keeps the old pgAdmin ?

[pgadmin-support] xls export vs Data Migration tools [akaxls export function]

2008-09-10 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

If you do a lot of data migration, I would recommend using an ETL tool.

I am using Talend Open Studio, which is an Open Source software. It's based on 
the Eclipse framework, you define your jobs with a graphical tool (drag & drop 
components : DB tables, files -Excel, CSV, XML, ...-) and then it generates the 
code that you reuse in your program (Perl or Java). It took me only a couple of 
days to be able to use it and to run plenty of imports.
I am not afiliated with them: it's just a great tool ... and Open Source !

I don't think it's the purpose of pgAdmin of doing a lot of extract.

XLS (or Excel XML) output would really be a big benefit (at least for me).
The big problem for me with CSV is that it can't describe datatypes. So
you have to options: a) let excel guess the datatype, which is often
wrong or b) set the datatype explicit at every CSV import for every
column. When you do a LOT data migration (which is a part of my job at
the moment, we're moving to SAP..) this can be very annoying.
To prevent that excel uses a wrong datatype, I don't use CSV export in
PgAdmin at all.
I create a view for each dataset that has to be exported and load the
view with the PostgreSQL ODBC driver to excel. Not very comfortable, but
at least not as error-prone as CSV import.

Creating an excel compatible XML output to PgAdmin shoudn't be to hard,
I've done this before for other tools. I really like to implement this
feature in PgAdmin, but no time atm.
Creating an "real" XLS is probably a bit harder than XML (but in doubt
you can always peek in e.g. perl's great Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module).

Hi,
We experienced pb in installing the Postgres db because, at the end of the 
installation, the pgm generates an error messaging saying that the password 
authentification is failed. Trust me that I follow all the installation 
procedure.
Aside this, I've got an error in creating the postgis db as well.
As far as I know, your product is very interesting but in the meantime, would 
you please give some hands in resolving my problem.
Feel free in contacting me as quick as possible.

[pgadmin-support] Feature request: pgdump and version number / -i option

2009-01-08 Thread Laurent ROCHE
Hi,

I am running pgAdmin III 8.1.4 on WinXP on a PG server 8.3.3.

I am trying to backup a single table. When doing right-click on the table and 
"backup" command, it will fail because pgdump considers there's a mismatch 
between the server version (8.3.3) and the pgdump version (8.3) version.
I get the following message:
C:\Program Files\pgAdmin III\1.8\pg_dump.exe -h my_server -p 5432 -U postgres 
-F p -v -f "C:\Projects\table.sql" -t "\"public\".\"my_table\"" my_db
pg_dump: server version: 8.3.3; pg_dump version: 8.3.0
pg_dump: aborting because of version mismatch  (Use the -i option to proceed 
anyway.)
pg_dump: *** aborted because of error

I realise this is because pgdump is a bit too specific about the version 
number: for now, the solution is to run the command from the command line with 
the extra option -i.

But in a future version, could we have an extra option in the backup popup to 
use the -i option ?

If it were done in the right way, yes. The topic comes up on
pgsql-hackers every now and again, but I'm not aware that anyone has
worked on it.

Cordial Saludo

En estos momentos estoy haciendo un aplicativo con lenguaje ASP 3.0 (Active

Al ser nuevo en el manejo de la Base de datos en PostgreSQL, quisiera que
ustedes me pudieran colaborar en un tutorial, un enlace, colaboración por parte
de su organización, entre otros, de  cómo
puedo crear una Base de Datos y crear un servidor.
Creo que por lo que he leído se hace a través del pgAdmin

Muchas gracias por la ayuda prestada.
