Well, that did get me past those errors.. Thanks so far ;-)
Now, when I do install DBD::Pg, it goes through the install process and then
returns the following:
============
Running make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1
/usr/local/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686
-linux -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 test.pl
OS: linux
Use of uninitialized value in join or string at test.pl line 53.
DBI->data_sources .......... not ok:
DBI->connect(dbname=template1) failed: FATAL 1: SetUserId: user 'root' is

DBI->connect ............... not ok: FATAL 1: SetUserId: user 'root' is not

make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255
/usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
Running make install
make test had returned bad status, won't install without force

Subject: Re: CPAN Errors
You don't have any serious problems. As root run the following commands:
export POSTGRES_INCLUDE=/usr/local/pgsql/include
export POSTGRES_LIB=/usr/local/pgsql/lib
(You may have to put in different paths above to the appropriate include and
lib
directories if you have an RPM, or any other non "standard" installation of
Postgres)
This will set the environment so Perl knows where to look for Postgres
libraries and
sources.
Then (as root) do:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> install DBD::Pg
This should get you past the error you're getting.
