Re: Driver 8.1 : fails contacting the server with routable address

[Guillaume Gautreau <guillaume(dot)gautreau(at)enpc(dot)fr>]

I have more precisions about this problem.

Looking at the logs, it appears that :

• When contacting a "local" server (192.168.*.*), the driver asks the user login and pass
• When contacting another server (routable address), the driver tempt to use the Access UID ("Admin") with a password.

Hi,

I'd like to use the postgresql driver in Access, in order to query a postgresql server in my company. I'm linking tables inside Access with the driver, and all the setup works fine.
But there is a very strange issue when closing the file and re-opening it.
When I do all this stuff on my client and a test server all works great. My server have the address 192.168.*.*. I don't want Access to remember the password. When I open the file and click on a table, the driver window pops up and I have to type it.
When I try to do the same with the production server (with a routable address) I get an issue. The driver pop up does not appear and it seems to try to contact the server with the good login, but the password can't be the good one. And then, it sends an error.
Then, I do the exact same thing from another client, but querying my testing server. The IP address used is then routable (my test server is a virtual one, using NAT). I query the exact same server from another location. And I experienced the exact same error.
No problem for linking the tables, but when I close then reopen Access, it seems to try to directly contact the server without asking me the password. And then, it fails.

I tried the previous driver version (7.*), all works fine. But I just can not use it because i need the SSL support (and this version seems not to support it).

Did you experienced the same issue ? Could you give me more precisions ?
Could you help me ?

Thanks
