GETTING ODBC STORAGE WITH POSTGRESQL WORKING WITH VOICEMAIL
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1) Install PostgreSQL, PostgreSQL-devel, unixODBC, and unixODBC-devel, and
|
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL-ODBC. Make sure PostgreSQL is listening on a TCP socket, and that
|
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL-ODBC. Make sure PostgreSQL is running and listening on a TCP socket.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2) Log into your server as root, and then type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[root@localhost ~]# su - postgres
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will log you into the system as the "postgres" user, so that you can
|
|
|
|
|
create a new role and database within the PostgreSQL database system. At the
|
|
|
|
|
new prompt, type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ createuser -s -D -R -l -P -e asterisk
|
|
|
|
|
Enter password for new role:
|
|
|
|
|
Enter it again:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Obviously you should enter a password when prompted. This creates the
|
|
|
|
|
database role (or user).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next we need to create the asterisk database. Type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ createdb -O asterisk -e asterisk
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This creates the database and sets the owner of the database to the asterisk
|
|
|
|
|
role.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next, make sure that
|
|
|
|
|
you are using md5 authentication for the database user. The line in my
|
|
|
|
|
pg_hba.conf looks like:
|
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf looks like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
|
|
|
|
|
local jsmith2 jsmith2 md5
|
|

|
local asterisk asterisk md5

local all all ident sameuser

|
|
|
|
|
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As soon as you're done editing that file, log out as the postgres user.
