Has anyone used DRDB (http://www.drbd.org/) with Postgres and can speak to
its speed/value, specifically in its various replication modes (
http://www.drbd.org/users-guide/s-replication-protocols.html)?
Thanks,
Gavin
I just install it as my own user on my laptop... I usually do something like
./configure --prefix=/Users/myaccount/pgsql
make make install
then
cd ~/
pgsql/bin/initdb -D /Users/myaccount/pgsql/data
pgsql/bin/pg_ctl _D /Users/myaccount/pgsql/data start
and I'm off to the races ;-)
Good luck!
You'll want to evaluate pgBouncer to see if it meets your needs. It
works very well for general proxying, connection pooling.

Are you contemplating providing access to data that's currently not stored
in the pg_ catalog tables? I currently monitor the statio data,
transactions per second, and active/idle backends. Things that I think
would be useful would be average query execution time, longest execution
time, etc.
Hmm.. also data such as what is the background writer currently doing, where
are we at in checkpoint segments, how close to checkpoint timeouts are we,
etc.

Your easiest route will be to have them export a csv file out of excel and

You might want to look at pgBouncer to pool your drupal pgsql needs. I've
found with 2000 needed connections, I can pool out to only 30 backends and
still push 8k transactions per second.

The way to handle this is to make your ajax call PHP scripts which
handle your data and return your XML for the Javascript (or HTML).
AJAX makes HTTP requests, it does not talk directly to the database
server.
In essence to do what you're asking you would need a JavaScript
implementation
I'd check to make sure you dont have extra pgsql.so and postgresql
library files laying about. My off the cuff guess is that pgsql.so
is linked against 8.0 libs and you need to recompile it to link
against 8.1 libs?

It doesnt sound like an apache problem to me, it sounds like a
library version conflict happening in PHP, so apache shouldn't impact
it. What happens when you try and access pgsql functions from the cli?

I haven't compiled it myself, but a guess would be if you installed
XCode (which comes with gcc, and should have most if not all the libs
needed) it's a matter of grabbing the source, untarring it, running ./

Thank you for posting to a better list for these questions. Check your
postgresql.conf file and make sure it's accepting TCP/IP connections on
the IP you're looking for. If you look in your PGDATA directory you
should find the config file, and if you open it and read it, it's well
commented
PDO just went into beta, and can be downloaded from
http://pecl.php.net/package/pdo to be compiled into previous versions of
PHP. We really should get some PHP and PgSQL people onto making sure
the PgSQL driver is top notch (if it isn't already).

personally, I'd sooner use dbase 3 than give SCO any money.
