Connection between PostgreSQL and Symfony3 (Doctrine) - postgresql

I'm starting a symfony project and i got a PosgreSQL database. I work on Windows 10 and Xampp
I know that xampp works with postgreSQL (i edited php.ini to make it work) because the postgre driver is shown in phpinfo and i did a php script test to connect to the DB and it works.
This is what i get in config.yml
doctrine:
dbal:
driver: pdo_pgsql
database_host: localhost
database_port: 5432
database_name: postgres
database_user: postgres
database_password: toto
charset: UTF8
However, whenever i try to use a basic console command with symfony like
php bin/console doctrine:database:create
it returns :
[Doctrine\DBAL\Exception\DriverException]
An exception occured in driver: could not find driver
[Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDOException]
could not find driver
[PDOException]
could not find driver
EDIT : after some hours of searching it, i figured that i had a different php folder that my console used. I've uninstalled it and added the php runned by xampp in my environment variables. And then the console used the right php and the doctrine command worked.
Problem solved.

execute php -m in your CMD if you don't see pdo_pgsql so you need to add the extension to php.ini that php execute

If you're using php7.0:
sudo apt-get install php7.0-pgsql
For ondrej/php Ubuntu repository with php7.1:
sudo apt-get install php7.1-pgsql
Same repository, but for php5.6:
sudo apt-get install php5.6-pgsql

How do i fix PDOException::("SQLSTATE[08006] [7] SCRAM authentication requires libpq version 10 or above") [duplicate]

I am getting an error after moving the project to production. The error is as follows while running with production server
pg_connect(): Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server: SCRAM
authentication requires libpq version 10 or above.
Here is my PostgreSQL version:
Development Version :
PostgreSQL 11.5 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623
(Red Hat 4.8.5-36), 64-bit
Production Version :
PostgreSQL 11.5 (EnterpriseDB Advanced Server 11.5.12) on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-36), 64-bit
For those on M1-Based macs who are currently seeing this issue in docker - there appears to a bug upstream in libpg that's building against the wrong library version on ARM.
Until it's fixed, a workaround is to (at a performance hit) is to just run it via rosetta.
export DOCKER_DEFAULT_PLATFORM=linux/amd64, and re-build your images.
You'll get the latest version of libpq, and things should Just Work.
Ref: https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg2/issues/1360
Your application uses an API that is linked with the PostgreSQL client C library libpq.
The version of that library must be 9.6 or older, and SCRAM authentication was introduced in v10.
Upgrade libpq on the application end and try again.
If you don't need scram-sha-256 authentication, you can revert to md5:
set password_encryption = md5 in postgresql.conf
change the authentication method to md5 in pg_hba.conf
reload PostgreSQL
change the password of the user to get an MD5 encrypted password
I ran into this while running a python:3.9 docker image where I had installed psycopg2-binary==2.9.3. Installing psycopg2==2.9.3 instead resolved it for me.
For Amazone linux users:
$ sudo yum install -y amazon-linux-extras
then re install the postgres client again
$ sudo amazon-linux-extras install postgresql10
Then the main part install the python package in my case it was (psycopg2) reinstall it
$ pip3 install --force-reinstall psycopg2==2.93
specification:
python3.8.9
I used to get an error SCRAM authentication requires libpq version 10 or above when running php artisan migrate in laravel 8. Then I fixed it as follows: Change authentication from scram-sha-256 to md5, then reset your password and restart the postgresql-x64-13 service and here are step by step:
Step 1: Find file postgresql.conf in C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\13\data then set password_encryption = md5
Step 2: Find file pg_hba.conf in C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\13\data then change all METHOD to md5
Step 3: Open command line (cmd,cmder,git bash...) and run psql -U postgres then enter your password when installed postgres sql
Step 4: Then change your password by run ALTER USER postgres WITH PASSWORD 'new-password' in command line
Final: Restart service postgresql-x64-13 in your Service.
If you want to keep the scram-sha-256 for security. You need to update your client postgreSQL libraries, due to php-pgsql default version does not support it.
CentOS/Rhel/Rocky
yum install https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-7-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm
yum install postgresql13
This will update the server/client libpq in order to keep using scram-sha-256
This issue still affects m1 macs running python:3.10.* docker containers (based off aarch64 Debian 11). Solution for me was to install psycopg2 (build from source) instead of psycopg2-binary which is advised for production anyways:
pip install psycopg2
The python container has all the build dependencies already (like gcc). A more production appropriate container most likely won't have these https://www.psycopg.org/docs/install.html#build-prerequisites
I find 2 solutions. I didn't try local, solutions are for docker container.
Preliminary information:
According to the main image we defined at the beginning of the Dockerfile, our libq versions may differ. It is explained with examples in the answer given here.
If you want to know your libq version used in your docker-image, you can do the following, respectively.
After docker-compose run
docker-compose exec <app_name_in_docker-compose_file> sh
python
import psycopg2
print(psycopg2.extensions.libpq_version())
If you're getting an error, you'll probably see a number like 90xxx here.
Solutions:
First basic one. I used 'python:3.9-slim-buster' at docker and I've got error. Change base image name to 'python:3.9.6-alpine3.14'
The second solution is to build the psycopg2 file and install libq and other dependencies. For this, add the following commands to the dockerfile.
RUN apt update -y && apt install -y build-essential libpq-dev
RUN pip3 install psycopg2-binary --no-binary psycopg2-binary
All the answers that are suggesting that password encryption should be reverted back to md5 are forgetting that PostgreSQL changed its default password encryption from md5 to scram-sha-256 for security reasons.
The issue then is those client applications that fail to use this modern encryption method. The libpq file that ships with PostgreSQL version 10 and above is fine. Just change your client applications if you can so that you use only the ones that support this new method.
For instance, For a long time I was using a package called RPostgreSQL that allows users to connect to a PostgreSQL database from R. Turns out that package doesn't support scram-sha-256. I have now replaced it with its modern equivalent called rpostgres. Problem solved, everybody happy now!
Based on answer by #meijsermans, I changed the requirements.txt for django:
#psycopg2-binary>=2.9.3
psycopg2>=2.9.5
and it worked without the SCRAM error!
Also tried with and without platform: linux/arm64 in docker.compose, didn't solve the problem.
Tried platform: linux/amd64 and had some unrelated errors (mainly "exec /bin/sh: exec format error")
Using postgres:14.5 image in postgres container and python:3.10.7 image for django
Had this issue and fixed it by switching from the binary version of psycopg2 to psycopg2 = "^2.9.3"
Thanks to previous answers, this was resolved in my case too when I switched from psycopg2-binary to psycopg2.
Use pip install psycopg2 in your environment. This resolves the issue for ubuntu based systems.
Encountered the same issue and applied #Laurenz Albe's fix but I would get an authentication error on my user for the database, because of encryption strategy change.
So instead of replacing scram-sha-256 with md5, replace it with trust in pg_hba.conf
Here is a more mundane answer, but this is what happened to me so I'll add it here.
I got this error when I tried to start PostgreSQL 9.4. I realized I already had PostgreSQL 11 running - it started automatically with my computer. Once I stopped version 11, I was able to start version 9.4. They can't listen on a port already in use, and both had the same port set. But I'm not sure exactly why the misleading error wording.
Found this problem installing on a ubuntu 22.04 image with python3.10 on Mac M1.
What worked for me was installing the psycopg2 package as root rather than with --user - then the specific user can use the package.
Looks like the --user install puts an incorrectly linked libpq at
/home/<user...>/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/psycopg2_binary.libs/libpq-d97d8807.so.5.9
If you have another pip install --user process kicking about after this, and it installs psycopg2 again under the .local path, just remove that from .local/lib/python3.x/site-packages/psycopg2*
Use vi (or other editor) to replace scram-sha-256 with md5 in the file postgresql.conf and post_hba.conf ; location of the files depends on your local set up. After this step 1 you may (most likely) continue to have the issue of authentication error. This is bcos the hash of password in DB still uses scram encryption. We will solve in the next few steps.
Restart postgresql server. This command depends on your server setup as well.
Reload DB and verify. Login with postgres id: sudo -u postgres sql
Reload (under the psql console):
SELECT pg_reload_conf();
Check Encryption:
SHOW password_encryption;
SELECT * FROM pg_hba_file_rules();
Reset password for user account (within the psql consol). This step will flush a new hash for the password under md5 to replace the existing scram hash of the user password.
\password user_id
Then you can run a test of DB connection with psycopg2, as well as sqlalchemy.
This solves my problem in the way i can understand, being aware that md5 is less ideal an encryption method than scram-sha-256 but recompile the package to meet the requirement of psycopg2 is a pain in a**. So i would switch back to md5 first then when the package are all ready then change it to scram encryption.
Reference: PostgreSQL downgrade password encryption from SCRAM to md5
RUN apt-get -y update \
&& apt-get install -y build-essential gettext libpq-dev\
&& apt-get install -y wkhtmltopdf\
&& apt-get install -y gdal-bin\
&& apt-get install -y libgdal-dev\
&& apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends software-properties-common\
&& apt-add-repository contrib\
&& apt-get update
Try this.

Tilemill error Could not create datasource for type: 'postgis' (searched for datasource plugins in '/usr/lib/mapnik/input')

Followed link OSM Quick start
Had little bilt problems but i managed to perform all the steps. But when my opened my newly created project in tilemill we just mad it shows error
Could not create datasource for type: 'postgis' (searched for datasource plugins in '/usr/lib/mapnik/input') encountered during parsing of layer 'landuse_gen0' in Layer at line 197
Can somebody tell me what this error and how to resolve it. I have followed all steps n provide link above?
The "OSM Bright Quick Start" page is a bit outdated. A few differences to handle installing postgres/postgis for Linux Mint 17.1/Ubuntu 14.04 to handle in Step 0 + 1:
sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1
sudo apt-get install mapnik-input-plugin-postgis
# Set every method to "trust"
sudo vim /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/pg_hba.conf
sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql restart
psql -U postgres -c "create database osm;"
psql -U postgres -d osm -f /usr/share/postgresql/9.3/contrib/postgis-2.1/postgis.sql
psql -U postgres -d osm -f /usr/share/postgresql/9.3/contrib/postgis-2.1/spatial_ref_sys.sql
This worked for me. Then follow with Step 2...
You should check the directory /usr/local/lib/mapnik/input, and you will find the file postgis.input is missing.
The reason is that when you compile mapnik, the dependency for plugin 'postgis' can not be satisfied. You can run python scons/scons.py INPUT_PLUGINS='postgis' in the shell and you would be reminded some dependency problem. So you should add the postgresql and postgis to the system environment before make mapnik.
Make sure postgresql94-devel has been already installed or you can run sudo yum install postgresql94-devel.Then, you can do like this
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/pgsql-9.4/bin:/usr/pgsql-9.4/lib:/usr/local/lib
and then use the ./configure,make and make install command for mapnik. After reinstallation of mapnik, you should find postgis.input in the directory /usr/local/lib/mapnik/input and then try again.

How to change a database to postgresql with Symfony 2.0?

I have a Symfony2 project under Debian. What are the steps to change my database to postgresql ?
Note: The question has been asked here, but it is with symfony 1.4, I believe.
Install postgresql under debian:
apt-get install postgresql postgresql-client
apt-get install php5-pgsql
adduser mypguser
su - postgres
psql
CREATE USER mypguser WITH PASSWORD 'mypguserpass';
CREATE DATABASE mypgdatabase;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE mypgdatabase to mypguser;
\q
In /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini, add: (this is in fact optional)
extension=pdo.so
extension=php_pdo_pgsql.so
Change the symfony apps/config/paramters.ini file:
[parameters]
database_driver: pdo_pgsql
database_host: localhost
database_port: null
database_name: mypgdatabase
database_user: mypguser
database_password: mypguserpass
Relaod your project:
php bin/vendors update
php app/console assets:install web
php app/console doctrine:schema:create
php app/console doctrine:fixtures:load
chmod 777 -R app/cache app/logs
You're done!

rails postgresql database connection

I am trying to use a postgresql database for my rails app.
I followed the tutorials provided in this link:
http://blog.crowdint.com/2010/10/27/working-with-postgresql-and-rails3.html
I successfully installed postgresql with this command:
sudo apt-get install postgresql postgresql-client postgresql-contrib libpq-dev libpgsql-ruby libgda-4.0-postgres libpq-dev
When I reached the line to create a user I entered this command:
sudo -u postgres psql template1
But after I entered a password for root it gave me an error saying
env: -u: No such file or directory
Any idea why the error popped up?
It sounds like the environment/path may be messed up for your user. I'm not sure if you're running on mac or linux/unix but I found a post from the Ubuntu forums that may be related to your problem:
sudo is broken
I'm not sure if alias'ing sudo (page 2 reply)
alias sudo='sudo env PATH=$path'
is the best permanent solution but it fixes it for him. I have no such alias on my sudo so I'm thinking there's a better solution via profile / export command and would invite someone to provide a better answer.
Hope this helps
