Connection failed [was: Re: Distribution package for OSX]

Hi, guys,
So I moved a little further with this.

First of all I found out that default OSX install comes with client tools
pre-installed. No server.

So I installed the PostgreSQL server on my Mac.

Next is trying to connect with iODBC.

But first I tried to open SQL Shell (psql). Here is the session log:

[code]
Last login: Tue Dec 6 23:11:08 on ttys001
/Library/PostgreSQL/9.1/scripts/runpsql.sh; exit
Igors-MacBook-Air:~ igorkorot$ /Library/PostgreSQL/9.1/scripts/runpsql.sh; exit
Server [localhost]:
Database [postgres]:
Port [5432]:
Username [postgres]:
Password for user postgres:
psql (9.1.24)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# \q
logout

[Process completed]
[/code]

So I presume that the server is running.

Next I tried to configure ODBC. Since there is no psqlODBCS.so to
setup the connection,
I tried to do it manually.

Here are the files:

[code]
Igors-MacBook-Air:~ igorkorot$ cat .odbcinst.ini
[ODBC Drivers]
MySQL ODBC 5.3 Unicode Driver = Installed
MySQL ODBC 5.3 ANSI Driver = Installed
PostgreSQL Unicode Driver = Installed

[ODBC Connection Pooling]

[PostgreSQL Unicode Driver]
Driver = /usr/local/lib/psqlodbcw.so

Igors-MacBook-Air:~ igorkorot$ cat .odbc.ini
[ODBC Data Sources]
myodbc = MySQL ODBC 5.3 Unicode Driver
myodbca = MySQL ODBC 5.3 ANSI Driver
postgre = PostgreSQL Unicode Driver

[ODBC]

TraceAutoStop = 0
TraceFile =
TraceLibrary =

[myodbc]
Driver = MySQL ODBC 5.3 Unicode Driver
SERVER = localhost
PORT = 3306

[myodbca]
Driver = MySQL ODBC 5.3 ANSI Driver
SERVER = localhost
PORT = 3306

[postgre]
Driver = PostgreSQL Unicode Driver
SERVER = localhost
PORT = 5432
User = postgres
Password = wasqra
Database = postgres
[/code]

Please tell me if I made a mistake configuring the DSN.

Now when trying to connect to the database I'm getting following error:

[quote]
Could not connect to server. No such file or directory.

Also, just for the reference, here is the files in /usr/local/lib:

[code]

[/code]

Could anyone spot an error?
Or maybe I have to have a non-default database in order to connect via ODBC?

Thank you.

P.S.: Hopefully the mailer will understand that there is a
continuation of the old thread...
