Summary: Can't use (b)lobs with Omnis Studio v4
Initial Comment:
Hi.
My company uses PGSQL v8.1 as backend database and Raining Data's Omnis Studio v4.1 as developpement tool (see http://www.omnis.net/. There is a demo version).
LOB (blobs, clobs) can't be used with Postgresql and ODBC, either using lo or bytea. Queries fail or the app' crashes.
I tried different settings with psqlOBDC with no luck.
I've joined my log.
If you have questions or need more details : nte@mustinformatique.fr
Thanks.
Nathanael TERRIEN.

I take a look at mylog:
1) Could you ask Omnis why thay send query: select @@version
It's MS-SQL syntax which isn't supported by PgSQL (I can wrote some hack patch which will be without more support - so it isn't solution).
2) Could you try the latest dll at http://www.geocities.jp/inocchichichi/psqlodbc/index.html ?
The problem with columns information (in 08.02) may be fixed there (in CVS too).
If I'll be faster I test it here. But it helps me when you try it and post here the result.
I'm going to look at it tomorrow or during weekend.
Regards,
Luf

Hi. I've remailed the files.
And I received an e-mail from the Beta Program at Omnis Studio about the problem with PgSQL.
Here it is :
[quote]
The "ERROR : length for type varchar can not exceed 10485760" problem is a bug with the PGSQL ODBC driver. The PGSQL driver reports BYTEA, TEXT and VARCHAR precisions incorrectly (fault reference ST/*B/039).
We have added patches in the ODBC DAM release candidate to work around these issues (I will send this to you separately via email).
"The PGSQL ODBC driver also has problems fetching binary data (e.g. lists) and we have obseved similar crashes in doing so. (Your Microsoft error report should show that the crash is occuring within the ODBC driver).
"

Hi.
I have a few more tests and still get the same errors.
I'm uploading 3 more files :
One "mylog" (mylog_3608.log) while trying to visualize a table structure within Omnis studio (with the integrated SQL Browser).
Another "mylog" (mylog_3052.log) while Omnis is trying to create the tables for a VCS database (with blobs).
And finaly, a pdf file (20060602_OmnisStudio4_PGSQL_ODBC_BUG.pdf) wich is an "How to", to help you reproduce those simple tests with demo version.
It implies no programming at all, just using the integrated IDE tools of Omnis Studio.
Hope this helps.
PS : I've also contact Omnis Studio's editor, Raining Data. I'm in their beta program for the next version (4.1.5) and they have taken in account the problem with postgresql. But this no luck yet :(
Thanks for your help.

Could you send us the mylog output or better the minimalistic example which leads to error?
I have downloded Omnis studio but I see no help from you.
I'm looking forward

BLOBs still don't work correctly with version 08.02.0002.
Worse, through an ODBC connexion, Omnis Studio can't see anymore the tables and their structure, though it was working with previous version and querries seem to be still functionning.
But we use to use the Unicode driver of the previous version and everything is coded with UTF8 on the DB server. Is is related ?

Please test version 08.02.0002 (available from http://pgfoundry.org/frs/?group_id=1000125) and report whether or not the problem still exists.

It seems to me that it's coming cutted to ODBC driver.
There is no source code of OStudio so I don't know why it is doing it this way. Maybe psqlODBC answer bad information before. But I don't know where and I don't know what OStudio expects.
How do you created lo type? Could you try newer ODBC driver? Could you post minimalistic example (or steps leads to reproduce it)? I don't want to learn OStudio.
I don't think that OStudio sent exactly the same query ;-)

Sorry for the double post before.
Yes, I've read the logs.
You're right, of course, this isn't a correct SQL command and that's the real problem :)
The SQL commande seems to be "cut" and I don't why or by whom (Omnis Studio or the psqlODBC driver) ... but you should know ;).
ANd it's cut just before a blob datatype.
FYI, the exact same command sent by OStudio to MySQL 4.x through ODBC works perfectly and create a "mediumblob" field.
Those logs aside (wich result of an automated VCS Database creation monitored by OSTudio), I've never been able to use lo/bytea blobs with psqlODBC and Omnis Studio : it crash or read/write faulty data.
I have, of course, sent a bug report to Raining Data too but I thought I should inform the great psqlODBC team also ;)
Thanks for looking at this issue, regards,
Nathanael.

I see no problem with lo or bytea:
[SQLExecute]
CREATE TABLE VCS_ComponentData (vcs_ID int4 NOT NULL,vcs_ChunkID int4 NULL,vcs_ChunkSize int4 NULL,vcs_ChunkChecksum int4 NULL,vcs_Data
This isn't SQL command. Do you read what driver report?
STATEMENT ERROR: errnum=7, errmsg='Error while executing the query'
CONN ERROR: errnum=108, errmsg='ERROR: syntax error at end of input au caractÄre 137'
Please don't create new bug report. Either log in before you report bug or send additional information to pgsql-odbc mailing list.
