RE: tourble migrating from linux/Apache/postgresql/perl to win200 0/IIS/postgresql/perl - Mailing list pgsql-cygwin

Just a little more info for you:

When trying to build the latest postgresql-7.1.2 I get the following error:
bash-2.05$ make
make -C doc all
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/postgresql-7.1.2/doc'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.

win2000/IIS/postgresql/perl

Hello Jason,

We previously communicated on the following post about a week ago:
http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=121056

I am still running into setup/config issues with postgresql and perl
under IIS.  I hope this new thread will find answers from people that
have done something similar in the past.

Just to recap:
- cygwin/cygipc are setup properly.

- I have taken the postgresql7.0 prebuilt NT binaries from
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/ftpsite/binary/v7.0/NT.  (I could not get
the lastest source to compile on our IIS box because some include files
were not part of the tar I downloaded.  Perhaps there are external
dependencies (visual c++?) that were not incluced in the tar.  If
someone has been able to compile the latest source for win32, please
tell me where I can get it prebuilt.)

- the database has been restored from my old linux box over to the IIS
box and I can see data using psql.

- old perl scripts have been moved over and configured to run under IIS

- Fred Yankowski pointed me to www.php.net, however, I belive if I take
that route, the perl cgi's I'm trying to migrate over to win2000 will
need to be re-written using php.  I think it's probabaly best to avoid
re-writing code for this migration - any way to avoid this if I use php?



ISSUES:
- I am not able to load the perl module in my cgi scripts.  There are
many posts regarding this issue... See
http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=120905 for more
information.

I belive the problem is the prebuilt postgresql7.0 NT binary I
downloaded.  There should be a libpq.dll (win32) library in this package
but I only see a libpq.a (unix) library.  I don't think the Pg.pm module
can be loaded properly w/o this library - but as I noted above, I'm not
able to build it myself on my IIS box.

Another possibility is that my environment may not have the path to
right Pg.pm module.  I can see the Pg.pm module in my
d:\cygin\usr\src\postgresql-7.1.1\src\interfaces\perl5\Pg.pm - Is this
the right place for this module?  If I pring out my the @INC array - the
path seems to be in there.
--------
#here is a test cgi I am testing with
test.cgi:
#!/usr/bin/perl
# -*- perl -*-   to tell emacs that this is a perl script
# Include any additional modules
push (@INC,
"d:\\cygwin\\usr\\src\\postgresql-7.1.1\\src\\interfaces\\perl5");

#also trying forward slash...
#push (@INC,
"d:\/cygwin\/usr\/src\/postgresql-7.1.1\/src\/interfaces\/perl5");

use CGI;
$q = new CGI;
print $q->header;

# Enable access to the SQL database
#use Pg;

print "INC=" . "@INC\n";

## Close the current script
exit (0);

--------
#here is the output
INC=D:/Perl/lib D:/Perl/site/lib .
d:\cygwin\usr\src\postgresql-7.1.1\src\interfaces\perl5
--------

I also saw some references to building an ODBC driver for postgresql -
do I need ODBC if I'm using cgi's?  I though that is necessary for
clients that are going via TCP/IP to the db (?)...

Can you help?

I will continue trying to find a solution to this in the meantime.

Best Regards,
