Hi All: First time poster and PostgreSQL noob...trying to set up a linked s=
erver in SSMS (SQL Server 15.0.2000.5) using 64-bit PostgreSQL Unicode(x64)=
driver. The PostgreSQL server is 10.5. My access to the server is readonly=
.
I configured the datasource and tested successfully, and am able to create =
the linked server in SSMS and drill down to the tables, but if I try a simp=
le query, I receive the error:
Msg 7356, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "[DSNname]" supplied incons=
istent metadata for a column. The column "[colname]" (compile-time ordinal =
3) of object ""[table]"."public"."[column]"" was reported to have a "DBCOLU=
MNFLAGS_ISLONG" of 128 at compile time and 0 at run time.
In pgAdmin, the datatype of the column referenced in the error is "citext".=
The field is limited to 5 characters by the app connected to the dB, so th=
ere isn't any really long text in it.
On the driver config first page, I have "text as LongVarChar" checked and t=
he other two boxes unchecked. I have "unknown sizes" set to "maximum".
I tried casting the field in the error message as "nvarchar(512)" but it di=
dn't help.
Not sure if it's a setting in the ODBC driver, but the few citations on Goo=
gle pointed to that being the source of the error (and the settings I'm usi=
ng above is supposed to fix it).
TIA!
