hello guys...
I used PostGreSQL 8.0.3 and WIn32
I try to connect my first project with Lazarus to PostGreSQL but there is an
error..."EDatabaseError" -> could not translate host name "172.0.0.1" to
address: Unknown host...
Here my simple code
procedure TForm1.BitBtn1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
PQConnection1.HostName:='127.0.0.1';
PQConnection1.UserName:='superuser';
PQConnection1.Password:='admin';
PQConnection1.Open;
end;
You could try to set the hostname to 'localhost' instead of '127.0.0.1' .
Or specify the ip address of your ethernet card ( by default PostgreSQL
accepts only local connections ).
But first of all, you should make sure that PostgreSQL accepts TCP/IP
connections . Are you able to connect with :
psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U user database_name
?
Also : (this may not work in Win32) in Linux it is possible to leave
the hostname
empty , which means that the program will connect to postgresql using
local sockets (which don't exist on windows).
Thanks
