Connecting to Advanced Server with edb-psql v13

edb-psql is a command line client application that allows you to execute SQL commands and view the results. To open the edb-psql client, the client must be in your search path. The executable resides in the bin directory, under your Advanced Server installation.

Use the following command and options to start the edb-psql client:

psql -d edb -U enterprisedb

Where:

-d specifies the database to which edb-psql will connect.

-U specifies the identity of the database user that will be used for the session.

If you have performed an installation with the interactive installer, you can access the edb-psql client by selecting EDB-PSQL from the EDB Postgres menu. When the client opens, provide connection information for your session.

edb-psql is a symbolic link to a binary called psql, a modified version of the PostgreSQL community psql, with added support for Advanced Server features. For more information about using the command line client, see the PostgreSQL Core Documentation at:
