Обсуждение: problem with update data sets from front ends 8.4, Ubuntu 10.04
postgres 8.3 to 8.4 Open office base 3.2 Ubuntu 9.04 to 10.04 (new install) I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 9.04 to Ubuntu 10.04. Security and other updates have been effected. I used webmin to restore the databases. Since migrating to Linux around 2006 we were successful in converting our mdb file to postgresql - only one glitch was a difference in -1 as YES. We successfully used the systems with open office as a front end for the last few years. Until now - after the upgrade I can view data but not update data. Experience with sql is very limited as I have always used sql query builders over the years. The system has worked well with multiple tables, and in the past there was no problems with sending sql statements to postgresql. My problem in OOO 3.2 base (other front ends also) is that there is continually a problem with not allowing queries to update data back to postgresql. I believe something has changed perhaps in sql from 8.3 to 8.4, or I have missed something with restoring the files. I enclose a typical sql statement for a table. -- Table: "FINANCEDETAILS" -- DROP TABLE "FINANCEDETAILS"; CREATE TABLE "FINANCEDETAILS" ( "FINDETID" serial NOT NULL, "INVREF" integer DEFAULT 0, "INITIALFINDATE" timestamp without time zone, "RESTARTFIN" timestampwithout time zone, "PAYDAY" integer DEFAULT 1, "AMOUNT" double precision DEFAULT (0)::double precision, "DEBITACC"integer DEFAULT 1, "DEBITDIVNO" integer, "CREDITACC" integer DEFAULT 0, "CREDDIVNO" integer, "TRANSDESCRIPTION"character varying(50) DEFAULT 'Support'::character varying, "COMMITMENT" character varying(50) DEFAULT 'Casual'::character varying, "SUPPORTBY" character varying(25), "EXPDATE"timestamp without time zone, "BANK" character varying(50), "BRANCH" character varying(50), "BRANCHCODE" charactervarying(50), "BKACCOUNTTYPE" character varying(50) DEFAULT 'Cheque'::character varying, "ACCOUNTNUMBER" charactervarying(50), "TYPETRANS" integer DEFAULT 0, "REMITTANCE" boolean, "RECEIPT" boolean, "JOURNAL" boolean, "VOUCHERREQ"boolean, "STANDINGORDER" boolean, "STDORDAUTHDETAILS" text, "OLDFINREF" numeric, "COMMENTS" text, CONSTRAINT"FINANCEDETAILS_pkey" PRIMARY KEY ("FINDETID"), CONSTRAINT "FINANCEDETAILS_FINDETID_key" UNIQUE ("FINDETID") ) WITH ( OIDS=TRUE ); ALTER TABLE "FINANCEDETAILS" OWNER TO dean; GRANT ALL ON TABLE "FINANCEDETAILS" TO public; # ----------------------------- # PostgreSQL configuration file # ----------------------------- # # This file consists of lines of the form: # # name = value # # (The "=" is optional.)

Records take one of these forms: # # local DATABASE USER METHOD [OPTIONS] # host DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD [OPTIONS] # hostssl DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD [OPTIONS] # hostnossl DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD [OPTIONS] # # (The uppercase items must be replaced by actual values.) # # The first field is the connection type: "local" is a Unix-domain socket, # "host" is either a plain or SSL-encrypted TCP/IP socket, "hostssl" is an # SSL-encrypted TCP/IP socket, and "hostnossl" is a plain TCP/IP socket. # # DATABASE can be "all", "sameuser", "samerole", a database name, or # a comma-separated list thereof. # # USER can be "all", a user name, a group name prefixed with "+", or # a comma-separated list thereof. In both the DATABASE and USER fields # you can also write a file name prefixed with "@" to include names from # a separate file. # # CIDR-ADDRESS specifies the set of hosts the record matches. # It is made up of an IP address and a CIDR mask that is an integer # (between 0 and 32 (IPv4) or 128 (IPv6) inclusive) that specifies # the number of significant bits in the mask. Alternatively, you can write # an IP address and netmask in separate columns to specify the set of hosts. # # METHOD can be "trust", "reject", "md5", "password", "gss", "sspi", "krb5", # "ident", "pam", "ldap" or "cert". Note that "password" sends passwords # in clear text; "md5" is preferred since it sends encrypted passwords. # # OPTIONS are a set of options for the authentication in the format # NAME=VALUE. The available options depend on the different authentication # methods - refer to the "Client Authentication" section in the documentation # for a list of which options are available for which authentication methods. # # Database and user names containing spaces, commas, quotes and other special # characters must be quoted. Quoting one of the keywords "all", "sameuser" or # "samerole" makes the name lose its special character, and just match a # database or username with that name. # # This file is read on server startup and when the postmaster receives # a SIGHUP signal. If you edit the file on a running system, you have # to SIGHUP the postmaster for the changes to take effect. You can use # "pg_ctl reload" to do that. # Put your actual configuration here # ---------------------------------- # # If you want to allow non-local connections, you need to add more # "host" records. In that case you will also need to make PostgreSQL listen # on a non-local interface via the listen_addresses configuration parameter, # or via the -i or -h command line switches. # # DO NOT DISABLE! # If you change this first entry you will need to make sure that the # database # super user can access the database using some other method. # Noninteractive # access to all databases is required during automatic maintenance # (custom daily cronjobs, replication, and similar tasks). # # Database administrative login by UNIX sockets local all postgres ident # TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only local all postgres md5 local all all ident # IPv4 local connections: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 # IPv6 local connections: host all all ::1/128 md5 Any assistance offered will be appreciated.

Experience with sql is very limited as I have always used sql query builders

I believe something has changed perhaps in sql from 8.3 to 8.4, or I have
missed something with restoring the files.
At minimum, we need to see the update statement that you are attempting to execute, preferably with any error message you receive.
Here is the sql statements. We don't pass update, I guess base or the relevant programmes does that. Some transactions that are based on forms seem to update, but sometimes they don't, and it would seem that certain constraints are not met, causing holes in the database. This didn't happen prior to upgrade - it would tell you that you couldn't delete the record, upholding constraints.

I installed the recommended JDBC driver. Set it up to connect using Open office. Still need to test to see how the queries build now, but problem is that the access to the database is dramatically slower than using the sdbc. Is this to be expected. thanks.

Per the known issues(http://dba.openoffice.org/drivers/postgresql/index.html#features): Data modifcation Modification of data in tables via the UI (e.g. via the beamer window) is only possible, when your table has a primary key and the primary key is part of the used select statement (otherwise the OOo framework has no possibility to find the row again to write the modification). Updateable resultsets Updateable resultsets are currently implemented for selects on simple tables only. Resultsets containing data from multiple tables raise errors in case a modification is attempted. #i30059# Updates may fail on tables with non-primary-indexes I have had better luck using the appropriate JDBC driver for the Postgres version(http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html). > > I never bothered to check the database structure, time constraints, but > with > this problem, I am seeing that many foreign keys are not listed.

As you say they are there to enforce referential integrity.
