I've been using OOBase for my Group records since moving to Kubuntu but am VERY un-happy with it! It hangs a lot and crashes and does not save on record exit either. It is VERY slow and the save routine is a nightmare. Also the recovery mode after a crash does NOT work! As a result I have lost much data and/or spend lots of time re-entering stuff. So I decided I should move to a 'better' option. 1) - I was told I could change the DB Engine in OOBase for MySQL which would sort out my problems but after working at this for some time I gave up as I could not get it to work at all. 2) - I then decided to try MySQL on it's own, but again was unable to get any success. While investigating this I also became worried about the future of MySQL with the Orical buy-out! 3) - Having noticed that a recent upgrade included PostgreSQL which is supported by Canonical I decided to try this. I found a good tutorial for setting this up but have come un-stuck editing the config file as it will not accept my submask address!!! Is there anyone out there who could "hold my hand" and help me out here? My OpSys is Kubuntu 9.10 Thanks a lot Ian </body> </html>
