Hi,
If this is the wrong group to post this question, please point me in
the right direction,
Now my problem.
I've been trying to get large objects "happening" through a perl script,
which I want to run by httpd (user nobody) from the cgi-bin directory.
In other words, I want to serve images to browsers from a database.
This includes using the 'lo_export' function.
But I've found that I can only run 'lo_export' as superuser.
Is there any other way to get images served from the database?
Or how do I get around the above in perl.
I understand that there is a client side lo_export in libpq, but that
would mean writing my cgi script in c, yes? I think.
If not how do I use the client side. Does that mean embedding my perl
script in html?
any suggestions?
thanks greatly,
viva postgres!
Luke
