- # History:
- # --------
- # 2003-04-07 this is a hack, from serctl, to make work with postgres
- #
- # DISCLAIMER:
- # I have yet to get this software working in my production environment.
- # Everything compiles and runs, but not for long. It may or may not be a
- # good starting point for the ser postgres driver.
- #
- # I had a hard time with memory while developing this.
- # So, I decided to incorporate some memory routines that
- # I have been using for years. This didn't fix the problem,
- # but it did make memory management easier.
- #
- # The postgres driver requires that you have postgres installed
- # on your system. You can download this from: www.postgresql.org.
- # For this I used postgres version 7.3.2, but I imagine almost any
- # recent version should work.
- #
- # You will then need to have a postgres database somewhere, and it
- # needs to have the tables created in it. Currently I am supporting
- # 2 tables, location and subscriber. The file createtables.txt contains
- # the table definitions and index definitions.
- #
- # You may wish to load the tables from a 0.8.10 database. The script
- # copy_to_psql can be modified to open your mysql database and it outputs
- # the necessary commands to populate the tables of the postgres database.
- #
- # To use the postgres module in your ser.cfg file is just like using the
- # mysql module. Ie:
- # loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/ser/modules/postgres.so"
- #
- # That's it. Good luck.
