Remove them from Makefile.am and configure.in then run autoconf the ./configure again. 4. A man page for isql (and everything else :-) would be nice. Good point, I will try and sort one out. > > 5.

The original postgres driver only connects via tcp not unix domain sockets, so this wont have come up before. > 6. Is there some trick to getting the unixODBC trace file to work?

In the odbcinst.ini file add the following [ODBC] Trace = yes Trace File = /tmp/sql.log I moved it, otherwise you can't trace before a connection is made, which makes debugging connection problems a tad diffucult :-) > 7.
