Thanks Tomás,
I'm not sure what you mean by providing a password to psql. To get into psql,
I have to do:
psql databasename
If the database is owned by slitt, same as my Linux username, then I just go
straight in. Otherwise, it asks for a password or not, depending. If I do
this:
psql template1
it goes straight in. But when my last line of my program is this:
con = assert (envv:connect('template1'))
or this:
con = assert (envv:connect('template1', 'postgres'))
all the way down to this:
con = assert (envv:connect('template1', 'postgres', 'mypass', "127.0.0.1",
5432))
or even subbing in the machine's network address 192.168.100.2, it's always
the same error.
If I could just get ONE thing to connect, I could exploit the differences and
figure out the variables, but seemingly every single string I put in
envv.connect() comes back with " LuaSQL: Error connecting to database".
I'll tell you one funny thing though, now that you mention it. Work I do in
psql and work I do in pgadmin3 seem to not know about each other. Could that
have something to do with it?
Thanks
Steve
