If you had done as Ilya suggested and read the Fine Manual at
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/CPAN/data/DBD-Pg/dbd-pg.html, you would have
seen the following:
----------------------------
Connect Syntax
The DBI->connect() Data Source Name, or DSN, can be one of the following:
dbi:Pg:dbname=$dbname
dbi:Pg:dbname=$dbname;host=$host;port=$port;options=$options;tty=$tty
----------------------------
Note the dbname=$dbname.
You could have avoided wasting your time and ours by simply reading the very
first paragraph of the docs.
