  • The installation must be performed with an administrator profile on this machine.
  • The connection port to PostgreSQL database must be open between Talend Change Data Capture source machine and PostgreSQL database.
  • The ODBC 32-bit PostgreSQL driver (PostgreSQL30 and/or PostgreSQL35W) must be installed on Talend Change Data Capture source machine. Download the driver x86 last version from this link.

    The driver path must be defined in the environment variables:

    1. Go to Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment Variables > System.
    2. Under System Variables, edit Path and click New to add the PostgreSQL driver path (bin folder located under PostgreSQL ODBC installation directory).
  • To test the ODBC 32-bit PostgreSQL driver, you may create a system data source.

  • To capture a PostgreSQL source, you must have a user profile with specific permissions on the source database:
    • Right of connection on Talend Change Data Capture remote server.
    • Read permission and right of trigger creation on the database you want to capture.
