Re: [Dspace-tech] Help needed with DBD::Pg
yum install perl-DBD-Pg.x86_64 worked fine for me. Really you shouldn't be building it by hand unless you have specific requirements about the build, or it isn't supported by your package manager.

(This was after I tinkered with the DBD::Pg Makefile to adjust the erroneous paths provided by pg_config! Which made no difference.) The libpq-fe.h file that gcc is unable to find while attempting to compile the code is the primary header file of the postqres C client development library. It defines the PGconn and other API datastructures. It's been many years since I've used RedHat with postgres. But, as I recall there was a postgres-devel package or something similar that would install this header file along with the libpq shared library. You may want to check and make sure that you have all of the postgres devel packages installed. A missing devel package and a lack of a correct devel package dependency in the perl module package would explain why this would work for some people and not others. If there is no longer a devel package, or you already have it installed, you can use 'locate' to find the libpq-fe.h header file. Then, you can either pass the appropriate arugment to './configure' to include that include file path in the include paths or, if that is not possible, edit the make file to include the path of its location after a '-I' argument to gcc. As far as I can remember, I think RedHat used to install these files in strange places like a directories called postgres in /usr/include and /usr/lib rather than those directories themselves. So, you should also be able to fix your problem by symlinking, or moving, those files into the UNIX standard directories for their file type. Although, that type of action would make it more difficult to maintain your install over time as you performed postgres upgrades. Therefor, it would be best to attempt to resolve your issue, as James suggests - by relying on the distributions packages. Reinstalling the packages can sometimes clear up the types of problems you're seeing, especially if the source code and configurations of those packages have been modified. I hope my explanation of what I believe the problem to be has made it easier for you to figure out how to correct it. - VAB signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[Dspace-tech] Help needed with DBD::Pg
Hi. I'm wondering if anyone has installed the DBD::Pg perl module on RedHat? (RHEL) I'm having severe problems trying to get it to build. I have PostgreSQL 8.2.4 installed from a package.
