Okay gotcha,
Note in 4.1 this ability will be completely removed, the bugzilla is for cases where
people need it in some kind of production environment.
Assuming you can ssh into the machine that is running the engine (either HE or
standard engine) as root:
engine-config -s EnableDeprecatedClientModeSpicePlugin=true
If that doesn't work because the option was not added to engine-config (couldn't
tell
from reading the code). Try this:
sudo su postgres
--this will log you in as the postgres user
psql -d engine
--this will start psql connecing to the engine database. The default will be
--engine if you didn't specify something else during engine-setup. psql -l
--will list all the databases.
update vdc_options set option_value=true where
option_name='EnableDeprecatedClientModeSpicePlugin';
