According to this documentation http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/ecpg-connect.html
it should work to connect in ECPG like this: EXEC SQL CONNECT TO tcp:postgresql://bell.credativ.de:5432/pei AS myconn USER pei IDENTIFIED BY 'geheim'; (Or perhaps with single quotes, but that doesn't make a difference.) However, in the server logs I just see this: FATAL: database "'tcp:postgresql://bell.credativ.de:5432/pei'" does not exist So apparently this URL parsing needs work. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
