Resolve 14 PostgreSQL "Location" greyed out

PostWed Jul 12, 2017 9:07 pm

I am new to Resolve, and so far very impressed by what I've been able to quickly do!

After using the product on my primary system, I find it would be helpful to share the DB so that I can also work from other systems in my network. I have located the instructions for creating databases, and have been able to successfully create a database on the local machine. I've also manipulated the pg_hba.conf file according to common instructions.

Now, from another system, when I am in the Databases view, I have only the Disk (Local Database), and a greyed-out PostgreSQL "header."

My options are only "New database," "New Project," "New Folder," and "Close."

Clicking on "New database" and choosing "PostgreSQL," I find that Location is not editable, so cannot find a way to connect to the DB created on the remote system.

Is there a setting I've missed that would allow this?

Thanks!!

That means that on that particular system, you are using the free version of Resolve, one of whose limitations is, no shared database access.

Ah. Got it. I will look into purchase options.

Thanks so much for your quick reply.
