[jira] [Commented] (CONNECTORS-272) Upgrade PostgreSQL to version 9.1

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-272?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13141333#comment-13141333 ] 

Erlend Garåsen commented on CONNECTORS-272:
-------------------------------------------

I have done the following tests with the latest type 3 driver of PostgreSQL (9.1-901):
- MCF 0.3 with PostgreSQL version 8.4 (server) on Linux and OS X (testing backward compat.)
- MCF 0.3 with PostgreSQL version 9.1 (server) on Linux and OS X

Both ant test and ant test-pg passed.

I will commit the newest driver due to the test results above. And according to the PostgreSQL documentation, the newest driver should be backward compatible as well.

The MCF documentation needs to be updated.

> The recommended versions of PostgreSQL for ManifoldCF are 8.3 og 8.4. Since the latter version was released in July 2009, we should consider an upgrade to PostgreSQL 9.1.
> PostgreSQL 9.1 has several changes, for example improved VACUUM functions which may make ManifoldCF more efficient (see E.8.3.4.3):
> http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/release.html
> The JDBC driver which ships with ManifoldCF should probably be upgraded, but we need to figure out whether the newest JDBC driver is backward compatible with PostgreSQL 8.x.
