StORE/PostgreSQL problems in VW5i.3

[Thomas Gagne]

I loaded the parcel and experienced a couple of problems.  First, it didn't seem to work with version 6.5 that came on the RHAT 6.2 CD.  After downloading 7.0.3 I was able to get the basic Database stuff to work.

Problem now is that I'm in an infinite loop trying to use PostgreSQL w/ StORE.  Whenever I attempt to connect to the database I'm notified I must evaluate, "Store.DbRegistry update5i2" which I attempt to do, but it complains I'm not connected to the database.  When I try to connect it complains again, I try connecting again, it complains again... and I enter into an infinite loop desperately looking for a way out.

Also, am I supposed to do anything about the "self halt."s???  I just select Proceed.

Have you worked through all the installation instructions on the PostgreSQL home page? (see link at the top of this page).

It sounds like you're connected to a PostgreSQL database that does not have the StORE schema installed on it.

Try this: find the PostgreSQLTest class in the PostgreSQL driver parcel and run the test method (it's a class method).  If this is OK, then everything else should be fine - if the StORE schema is indeed  installed.
