Dear Postgres Support Team,
Greetings!
This is to bring to your notice that I am facing an issue with odbc_fdw
wrapper. My requirement is that I want to implement odbc_fdw extension/
wrapper in PostgreSQL 17.6.2 to read remote tables from SQL Server
(Remote db). I have the following details and attachment with
screenshots. I am working for my client (Experts.com), Need immediate
attention.
odbc_fdw is a third party extension you will need to contact other
resources:
1) The dedicated Postgresql ODBC list:
https://www.postgresql.org/list/pgsql-odbc/
2) The issues page for the driver maintainers:
https://github.com/CartoDB/odbc_fdw/issues
If you need immediate attention then you will need to reach out to one
of the professional support companies listed here:
https://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/
When you do the above you will need to provide more information, at least:
1) Postgres version
2) SQL Server version.
3) OS version.
4) What fdw_win64_17_bin is and where you installed it from.
5) The location of your Postgres installation and ODBC installation
Tasks completed:1. Downloaded fdw_win64_17_bin
2. Odbc_fdw extension created.
3. Created Foreign server ( Reports_server)
4. Tested DSN between odbc and sql db
( remote live db) successfully
5. User mapping done: mapped ‘postgres’
user to sql_prod_account/*****
6. Created foreign tables.
7. Select * from the public.”IpInfo” failed with driver error.
8. Postgres user not speaking to odbc
9. Tds_fdw files downloaded, right binary not available, not able
to create tds_fdw extension with available binaries.
10. ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server is compatible with and DSN tested
successfully and connected via 1433 and user/password to live db
11. Re-started postgres service with ‘Local System Account’ and
‘Network Service’ Account.
Issue:Not able to read foreign table data ( from Remote SQL DB) due to
error.
Error: Connecting to driver
SQL State: 58000
*
PostgreSQL service process can not load the odbc driver or connect
to the DSN defined file.
Please let me know Why I am not able to read from foreign tables,
correct binaries, and further steps to read data from remote SQL DB
tables. A quick response is greatly appreciated.
