Hello,

While playing around with OERP 7, I found a few times that being able to log in/log out would show a specific URL in the browser address bar that would only allow a default db to be picked. Otherwise, we have 4-5 test DB's right now.

For some reason, I can't seem to replicate this anymore - wondering if anyone else knows what special url needs to be entered in order for a specific DB to be selected only.

Thanks.

To select a specific database you can add the db option.

For example: localhost:8069/?db=database

Very true Ray, since he asked for a special URL above is what I assumed he was after. +1ed your comment though since it's a good one.

You can restart the server with the database options, which allow you to work with only one database. Below are listed the database options for the server:

Database related options:
    -d DB_NAME, --database=DB_NAME
                        specify the database name
    -r DB_USER, --db_user=DB_USER
                        specify the database user name
    -w DB_PASSWORD, --db_password=DB_PASSWORD
                        specify the database password
    --pg_path=PG_PATH   specify the pg executable path
    --db_host=DB_HOST   specify the database host
    --db_port=DB_PORT   specify the database port
    --db_maxconn=DB_MAXCONN
                        specify the the maximum number of physical connections to posgresql
    --db-template=DB_TEMPLATE
                        specify a custom database template to create a new database

You can also use --db-filter=YOUR_DATABASE to only show a single database. If you have the public portal activated, you will also be automatically logged in as well.
