Import Data from PostgreSQL not working "Couldn't access table"

[inesreinecke]

Hi All,
I am new to ARX, currently testing it. I prefer to access data directly from the database. Therefore I am using the import data wizard with option "Database (JDBC)" -> PostgreSQL. The wizard says "Successfully connected to database" after I entered all required DB server credentials. In the next window "Tables" I see all available tables, but unfortunately I am not able to choose a table and click next, since I receive the message "Couldn't access table".

Is this a know issue already or can be fixed easily?
Many thanks in advance. Cheers Ines

Hi Ines,

thanks for your interest in ARX and for reporting this issue. Also, sorry for the delay in replying.

This is not a known issue, unfortunately. Would you be able to help us with debugging this by running ARX from source?

Thanks again
Fabian

@prasser Sorry, I missed your update. I still have the same issue with ARX Version 3.9.0. I'll try to run ARX from source and update you soon. Ines

@prasser Hi, I have the same problem on importing JDBC and I suggests that this error were occurred because of (BLOB) data type records on Database, is there any way to access a table that contains (BLOB) data?

I tried to run the source code, but there's a lots of dependencies which are out of the POM file. any idea?

[prasser]

By default, ARX is build with Ant and not with Maven. No build system is needed for debugging in Eclipse. This should help with setting up a development environment: iaBIH#5

Hi again
I've ran an example that used ImportAdapterJDBC class to connect and read a Data base table.
if I try to read a table contains BLOB, this error will be shown:
"Couldn't retrieve data from database"
moreever I couldn't download Linux version of ARX from website. (https://arx.deidentifier.org/downloads/)
there is something I should install before download it?

Please create an issue for this, ideally with a minimal example to reproduce the problem.

I think your browser is blocking the download, as its an executable. Please try another browser.
