"SCRAM authentication requires libpq version 10 or above" Error Occurs When Connecting to the Tableau Server Repository From Outside of Tableau

Julkaisupäivä: Apr 25, 2025
Kuvaus

When attempting to connect to the Tableau Server Repository from outside of Tableau with a query tool which uses the PostgreSQL ODBC driver, the following error occurs:
 

SCRAM authentication requires libpq version 10 or above

 

Cause

The ODBC driver for PostgreSQL shipped with Tableau Server is out of date and can no longer be used to connect to the repository.

Ratkaisu
  1. Download an ODBC driver for PostgreSQL 10 or newer from the PostgreSQL website: https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/odbc/releases/
  2. Uninstall any versions of the PostgreSQL ODBC driver which are version 9 or older.
  3. Install the new PostgreSQL ODBC driver.
Lisäresurssit

This solution does not affect Tableau Server's ability to access the repository or other PostgreSQL databases, as Tableau Server uses the JDBC driver for PostgreSQL by default.

The issue only occurs when an external application is attempting to access the Tableau Server Repository using the ODBC driver that is shipped with Tableau Server.
