> Is there a way to distinguish the error I get from various methods (eg. > connect) besides parsing the text? I try few connect errors (wrong user, > wrong port) and the error code returned is 1 (DBI::err) and state is > 25P01 (DBI::state) and the error string is vary. The connect() method is much different from the other methods: once you are actually connected, you can get better error codes from the server itself. For the connect method, however, you'll need to parse the errstr yourself. Luckily, there is a fairly finite number of common connection errors. Once connected, you can rely upon the $dbh->state() method to return something reasonable. Be aware, however, that these codes were developed by committee and are not usually very specific or useful. The list is here: http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/errcodes-appendix.html Note that only a handful of those will appear in 99% of all errors. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane [EMAIL PROTECTED] End Point Corporation PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200708191130 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFGyGIrvJuQZxSWSsgRAyOVAJoD3U4w4kDT1Kql1ZuksmqtqgG50QCg1kk2 rzRDO77d9Xm+3iHDbhdlQrI= =01ee -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
