Perl-module: Pg

From

Hallo!

I have a problem. I made an update of my Debian system (meanwhile
"Woody"/testing), and my perl-CGIs do not work any more.
psql, pgaccess work quite fine, but the CGIs (using the "Pg" module) do
not work. On "$conn->errorMessage" I get a "There is no connection to the
backend" ...
Few days ago everything worked fine.

I already tried to install the module again by "perl -MCPAN -e
shell; install Pg", but that did not help, this is the result:

cpan> install Pg
Running install for module Pg

Configuring Pg
Remember to actually read the README file !
please set environment variables POSTGRES_INCLUDE and POSTGRES_LIB !
Running make test
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
Running make install
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't install

cpan>




How can I solve that problem?

Follow the rather explicit hints.

Ludwig,

The answer is right in front of you :)

In your shell, set your postgres library and include paths.
An example is:

    $ POSTGRES_INCLUDE = "/home/postgres/include";export POSTGRES_INCLUDE
    $ POSTGRES_LIB = "/home/postgres/lib";export POSTGRES_LIB

Then execute your CPAN install again.
