<font face="Monaco, Courier New"><span style="font-size:11pt">Hey Guys,<br>
<br>
There’s some new Database Goodness in the core of FreeSWITCH that can lead to some unexpected things for you guys updating existing installations using ODBC.<br>
<br>
We now have Native PostgreSQL support in the core, and along with this comes some changes to the various “odbc-dsn” settings around the tree.<br>
<br>
If you are using the format “dsn:username:password” you wont be affected, however if you are just specifying a DSN as “dsn” you will need to listen up<br>
<br>
The settings for this field have changed.<br>
<br>
pgsql://hostaddr=127.0.0.1 dbname=freeswitch user=freeswitch password='' options='-c client_min_messages=NOTICE for postgresql (the stuff after pgsql:// is a standard libpq connect string for you programmer types)<br>
odbc://dns:username:password for ODBC ( dsn:: should also work or dns:username: )<br>
sqlite://filename for sqlite different SQLite Databases<br>
<br>
I think we still need to doc this up good, but its there and its coming strong...<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
