I want to switch from mysql to postgres. I cant find that option anywhere.
If that is not possible, how do I decommision this instance? I cant find that option either.
It is not possible to change the engine once created. For decommision, you can use You can follow the instruction on this page

I would like to use Oracle database instead of MySQL in Joomla. Is this possible with Joomla, is there a workaround or a solution on how to implement Oracle database with Joomla? Any information will be greatly appreciated.
It is said that it can be done, but it is not a job for beginners and took those guys 3 working days to do it.
Here's why that combination doesn't work by default:
The database and table creation script does not work without modification.
The connection and the database class are written to connect to MySQL and not to Oracle (so they all use MySQL functions).
Some of the extensions use native MySQL functions directly, instead of connecting using the Joomla Database interface (class).
This is what they did to make it work:
We fix the SQL installation script to accommodate the Oracle database in case of a new installation. In case of an existing installation, we export all the database, as well as its data to a SQL file, and then we modify the SQL file (using find and replace) to make it work with an Oracle database.
We load the modified installation file or the modified exported SQL file into the Oracle database.
We then create a copy of the Joomla database class, and then we modify all the functions to work with Oracle instead of MySQL.
We ensure that the Oracle drivers are properly installed and loaded by the php.ini file.
We rename the original MySQL database (you will know in the next step why) to something like database_name_old.
We switch to the new database class and fully test the website to see if some extensions are not working. If an extension ceases to work then it is a sign that this extensions is calling the original MySQL database (which no longer exists because it was renamed) directly.
Hopefully, you aren't a beginner and those guidelines will help you do it. Otherwise, check how much it might cost by visiting the page.
As the title states, if I connect to my heroku posgresql DB via pgAdmin4 I see many other databases which I am not allowed to access.
I know there must be a restrction DB field somewhere but I cant find it.
In pgAdmin4 its not in the advanced tab as stated here:
StackOverflow similar Question pgAdmin3
Actually, you can hide the rest of databases.
When you fill in all credentials and connections parameters for the serevr, in order to avoid parsing so many databases, we have to white list only those databases we care about.
Go to the Advanced tab and under db restriction copy the database name (it’s the same value as the Maintenance database field filled earlier). Remember - you have to set up this parameter BEFORE you hit "Save" as you cannot modify this field after saving.

You're probably using a Hobby-Dev or Hobby-Basic database. These used shared infrastructure. Although you can see the other (obfuscated) DB's in the list, you do not have access to them. To avoid seeing them, specify the DB name in your connection settings in pgAdmin.
First of all thanks for all the previous support and advice.
This may sound like a silly question, but in Xampp, is it possible to remove unwanted databases in Xampp, and if so how would you do it?
If not, is that feature available in Wamp?
Open up a mysql prompt.
e.g. mysql -u username -p
the drop the database using:
drop database name_of_database
see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/drop-database.html for syntax
If you mean can you do it using the interface, I believe you can do it using phpmyadmin.
I am a little lost with the current documentation I have.
I am trying to access an oracle server within a Network, using a Debian Box. Ideally, what I'd need to do is to cron job something into SQL plus, so it performs periodically.
My scripts are ready, but I am not sure how to do the instalation part, or what to install in order to get access to SQLPlus. Does I need the full-fledged oracle client? Oracle XE? Will SquirrelSQL work?
Thanks a lot!
You just need the Oracle client, not the full database install. You can download it here. From the sound of it, you don't need the full client.
I am creating an app for webOS in enyo. I have an sqllite database running in the browser properly but how i can find the path of this database?
And how can i retrieve this database?
Is it possible to get whole DB file?
That is very new so I can't get the solution for it.
Any suggestion or help will solve my problem.
There is a really good Enyo SQL lite wrapper class that has been developed from the Mojo version by OneCrayon...
https://github.com/onecrayon/database-webos
this is really all you will need, if you read through the code there are some very good notes on how to use it!
Its not really clear what you're attempting to do.
If you use the webSQL interface to generate a db, you can use that same interface to access it.
You cannot really access the sqllite file directly, and its not clear why you would want to.
Or are you saying you already have an sqllite database from some other source and want to be able to open it up in your application via the websql interface? Thats not currently possible.
