Connect to PostgresSQL on a server hosted locally with encrypted data
Anonymous,
Are you able to decrypt the column in other postgreSQL GUI tool by writing the SQL statement?

How about you write SQL statement to decrypt the column when importing data from postgreSQL database?

Thanks for your answer I had seen this post but it did not work for me :/
I will precise my issue:
We are using Jasypt lib to encrypt data and PBEWithMD5AndDES algorithm
We have installed pgcrypto extension and tried to call that function on encrypted column, but it did not work.
If you have a solution for me that would be amazing!

No we use pgcrypto and try to decrypt PBEwith MD5 & DES but we can't via SQL it says :
ERROR: Unsupported cipher algorithm
********** Error **********ERROR: Unsupported cipher algorithm
SQL state: 39000We don't understand why but it feels like we will have to change encryption...
