Hi Sven, Thanks for the quick answer. I noticed that I didn't have the * NativePostgresDriver* class yet in my image. So I loaded PostgresV2 and GlorpDriverPostgreSQL from http://www.squeaksource.com/PostgresV2. Now the connection works, e.g.: *connArgs := PGConnectionArgs* * hostname: 'localhost'* * portno: 5432* * databaseName: 'db-name'* * userName: 'user'* * password: 'pwd'.* *conn := PGConnection new.* *conn connectionArgs: connArgs.* *conn startup.* *...* Thanks again for the hint.

Hi Dennis,

Yes, it will take a while for all add on packages to stabilize now that 2.0 is out.

I think you need to do something like

PharoDatabaseAccessor DefaultDriver: NativePostgresDriver.

HTH,

Sven

Hi all,

I downloaded a Pharo 2.0 image and wanted to connect my local PostgreSQL database.

For Pharo 1.4 I used

Gofer new squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository'; package: 'ConfigurationOfGlorpDBX'; load. ConfigurationOfGlorpDBX project latestVersion load: 'GlorpPostgresV2NativeWithTests

and went from there.

First I tried doing the same in Pharo 2.0, but that "ended" in a endless loop.

So I loaded the packages found here: http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~DBXTalk/Glorp/

I then tried to connect to my database in the following way:

login := Login new database: PostgreSQLPlatform new; username: 'user'; password: 'pwd'; host: 'localhost'; databaseName: 'db-name'. accessor := PharoDatabaseAccessor forLogin: login. accessor login.

But I got an error:

receiver of new is nil

in:

PharoDatabaseAccessor>>loginIfError: aBlock self log: 'Login'. self databaseDriver: self connectionClass new. ...

Whats would be the correct way to connect and use a psql db from Pharo 2.0?

Cheers, Dennis
