Thread: libpq.dll question
Hi, admitting that windows is quite alien to me... I have installed a postgresql server on linux and now want to allow windows clients access through a tcl gui. Activestate tcl is installed, and when I try to package require tdbc::postgresql I get a complaint about libpq.dll.5 missing. The postgres install kit contains just a libpq.dll, and renaming it does not seem to help Best regards Wolfgang Hamann
