Greetings List,
First off, big thanks for such a useful tool. It's great to see a "big
picture"
tool that can generate configs for other tools without trying to reinvent the
wheel as so many other NMSs & such have been known to do. I've been looking
for
something like this for a long time.
As mentioned by some other folks in the past few days, I had to battle a bit
with SQL::Translator as "make installdb" was failing to create the necessary
tables (just for Google: "Error with producer
'SQL::Translator::Producer::PostgreSQL'").
The solution in cpan was:
- add backpan.perl.org as a cpan source
- install FREW/SQL-Translator-0.11010_07.tar.gz to get SQL::Translator back to
version 11010.
Things went pretty smoothly after that. BTW I did the install from today's git
source.
Just out of curiosity, given the flexibility of SQL::Translator, has anyone
tried to use SQLite as a DB for Netdot? I'd be interested in hearing about any
successes or failures.
I'll also have a look at the config generator as there are a few other things
I'd like to "slave" to Netdot. I'm looking to migrate a pile of old reliable
MRTG cfgmaker scripts to Torrus someday, & this may help...
Best regards,

Thanks for the good feedback.

This will be fixed and tested for the 1.0.3 release.

I haven't heard about anyone trying that. The problem is that there are
DB-specific things throughout the code that we've had to add, even
though our initial goal was to be totally DB-agnostic. And in the future
we may decide to go with support for one DBMS only. Sad reality.

Cool. Remember to share with the community ;-)
