Forum OpenACS Development: Postgres Driver Too Old??

Collapse
Posted by Gilbert Wong on
<p>I'm trying to load OpenACS 4 and I get the following message when
I access the server:</p>

<pre>
Thank you for installing the ArsDigita Community System, a suite of
fully-integrated enterprise-class solutions for collaborative
commerce. This is the ACS Installer which performs all the steps
necessary to get the ArsDigita Community System running on your
server.
Please read the Release Notes before proceeding to better understand
what is contained in this release. Your Postgres driver is too old.
You need to update.

The first step involved in setting up your ACS installation is to
configure your RDBMS, correctly install a database driver, and
configure OpenNSD to use it. You can download and install the latest
version of the ArsDigita Oracle driver for OpenNSD from the ArsDigita
Web site and the latest version of the OpenACS Postgres driver from
the OpenAcs Web site.

Once you're sure everything is installed and configured correctly,
restart OpenNSD.
</pre>

<p>I compiled the postgres 1.1 driver from openacs.  What am I doing
wrong?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

Nevermind.  It looks like I need to grab the latest postgres driver from sourceforge.  Is this info listed on the OpenACS 4 documentation?

Yup...in file-storage (well, new-file-storage *grin) https://openacs.org/new-file-storage/download/openacs-4.html?version_id=169

I installed with few problems from that doc.

Actually, I got ahead of myself there...you should probably go to the file link (https://openacs.org/new-file-storage/one-file?file_id=114). That earlier link could become obsolete if a newer version of the install guide was uploaded...

Don't die of shock, folks, but I finally got around to making a new release of the Postgres driver here at openacs.org.  You can now go straight to the Software link on the navbar and get the latest version, which I've annointed as 2.0 (since the previous was annointed  1.1.0 in the SDM).
