I am running the latest Strawberry Perl v5.10.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread on Windows XP. PostGreSQL is latest v8.3.5 I cannot install DBD::Pg v2.11.5 via Strawberry Perl's CPAN client... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- CPAN.pm: Going to build T/TU/TURNSTEP/DBD-Pg-2.11.5.tar.gz Configuring DBD::Pg 2.11.5 PostgreSQL version: 80305 (default port: 5432) POSTGRES_HOME: C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3 POSTGRES_INCLUDE: C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\include POSTGRES_LIB: C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\lib OS: MSWin32 Checking if your kit is complete...

Anyone on the list have access to Strawberry Perl that can test this out? Alternatively, anyone have a Strawberry Perl box I can log in to and test out myself? Don't make me dig through my closet for an old Windows laptop...

I had the same problem with DBD::Pg v2.11.8 on Strawberry Perl 5.10.0.4. The recipe at http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/ perl.dbd.pg/2008/02/msg243.html seems to have fixed it for me. cheers, Gaurav

Hi Maurice, Since the October 2009 release of Strawberry Perl, DBD::Pg as well as the client libraries for PostgreSQL are bundled. I guess this would resolve your issues... [ref: http://csjewell.dreamwidth.org/7309.html] -- Mike
DBD::Pg now included with Strawberry Perl.
