DESCRIPTION

PostgreSQL for Mac is a collection of graphical tools for using and managing PostgreSQL servers, as well as the server itself installable on any Mac running OS X version 10.4.x. It should work on 10.3.9, but it is not officially supported in the configuration.

Also included as part of the package is the PGSQLKit framework, an open source framework for developers to leverage the power of PostgreSQL in their own applications.

After many years of development, PostgreSQL has become feature-complete in many areas. This release shows a targeted approach to adding features (e.g., authentication, monitoring, space reuse), and adds capabilities defined in the later SQL standards.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 8.4.1:

Updated:

  • Preference Pane now Snow Leopard compatible.
  • Updated to PostgreSQL 8.4.1 Core
  • Start at Boot should now work in the Prefs Pane.
  • Change Data Directory should now work in the prefs pane, it does NOT reinit the new data folder however
  • Altered the installation to support a new ‘versions’ support to enable side by side version installation.

Known Issues:

  • None of the Data Views in the Preference Pane work, only Source Views.
  • The installer does NOT stop a currently running instance of PostgreSQL, and will fail the install if one is running.
  • If the installer fails during the first run, please capture the error log before running it again, as it will most likely succeed on the second run.

REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

TEKSESTRO  Developer, please note:

1) uninstaller is missing

2) query tool installed by default (during the server install) is BAD - it seems to have been compiled as a PPC only, and not as a universal binary, so it won't run on my Intel machine.

3) documentation provided needs urgent updating, including: instructions for manual uninstall (in case the uninstaller goes missing again, or user is unable to run it), instructions for drag-install of client tools, and a basic troubleshooting guide (telling users what to do if the server does not seem to launch)

Your efforts to bring PostgreSQL to the Mac are certainly appreciated. Please, keep up the good work.

THIGRE  By far the easiest way to have an postgreSQL server running in no time... And I am using mine intensively since then ;-)

Great job

SJF  On my system, Query Tool for Postgres, and Create User both crash immediately. The other three tools (Create & Backup Database and Service Manager) seem to work ok.

Crash log follows...

DRU_SATORI  Both downloads on both download locations have been updated to fix this (boneheaded) issue. The problem was twofold. The build machine had an errant copy of the binaries that included a bad build, and the final copy phase had an issue on several of the GUI tools. Both problems have been resolved. Sorry for the confusion.

DRU_SATORI  What part is not installed as Universal? I'm trying to isolate which part, the server and command line tools, as well as the GUI tools appear to be Universal here. There *is* a problem with a couple of the tools that will be fixed today where the connection framework failed the copy which didn't show up o nteh QA machines as they also have the /Library/Frameworks/ vesion of the frameworks installed (oops).

DRU_SATORI  Ah, problem found and will be fixed in shortly. In the transition from Xcode to Xcodeproj the PPC build setting got lost. I has now been fixed in SVN and will be rebuilt and updated in the package this afternoon.
