Dear Sir or Madam

If you are a smoker in the UK, in the ROI, or in Scandinavia, then we have something for you.

You are probably fed up with paying high prices for your cigarettes and tobacco.  Take a look at what we can do for you at
http://www.advertiger.com/sf/?S=30&E=64309dfb0ccbde53266dd0f23ffdc7af

We can send you, legally, by registered air mail, direct to your door, 4 cartons of cigarettes or 30 fifty gram pouches of rolling tobacco (all brands are available) from only 170 Euros - about 105 British pounds - fully inclusive of postage and packing.  Why pay more?

If you would rather not hear from us any more, this link will ensure that you are not bothered again.

Yours faithfully.
British Smokers

Subject: [Canberra-pm] DBD-Pg on Win32
Message-ID: <009701c2d924$ba526fd0$0a28a8c0@homer>

G'Day,

I saw http://www.sql-ledger.org/ a while ago and it suited my needs
perfectly. For various reasons I have had to install this on Win32. I have
all I need installed:

- PostgreSQL
- Apache
- ActivePerl

The only snag is that I need the perl package DBD-Pg. It is not in the
repositories Perl Package Manager (PPM) that ActiveState is configured with.
I have searched high and low and cannot seem to find a _Win32_ version of
DBD-Pg that is PPM compliant (I would rather PPM did the hard work of
putting things in the right place and making sure the relevant config files
are updated)? So does anyone know of a URL that has this package somewhere
that I can download with PPM? (And yes I have contacted the author to no
avail)

TIA

The PPD would need to be something similair to the following:

<SOFTPKG NAME="DBD-Pg" VERSION="0,95,0,0">
	<TITLE>DBD-Pg</TITLE>
	<ABSTRACT>PostgreSQL database driver for the DBI module</ABSTRACT>
	<AUTHOR>Edmund Mergl (E.Mergl@bawue.de)</AUTHOR>
	<IMPLEMENTATION>
		<OS NAME="MSWin32" />
		<ARCHITECTURE NAME="MSWin32-x86-multi-thread" />
		<CODEBASE HREF="x86/DBD-Pg.tar.gz" />
	</IMPLEMENTATION>
</SOFTPKG>

TIA

Subject: [Canberra-pm] Still struggling with DBD-Pg on Win32
Message-ID: <00b101c2d98e$e96bba50$0a28a8c0@homer>

G'Day,

I am an extreme PERL newbie.  In order to get http://www.sql-ledger.org/
going I need to have a Postgres driver installed. I downloaded Active State
Perl and installed that and installed DBI with ppm. I downloaded a binary
Win32 Pg-DBD from http://www.edmund-mergl.de/export/DBD-Pg.zip However the
instructions to install the DBD-Pg from the above zip is "ppm install
--location=. DBD-Pg" once it has been unpacked. However the -location
appears to be an invalid command line option for ActiveState under Win32. It
was recommended that I unpack the zip using the tree structure it contains
as that should be all that is required. I did so as follows: (Blib was the
root directory in the zip and it seemed sane to place it at the same level
as C:\Perl\Lib)

C:\PERL\BLIB
+---arch
|   \---auto
|       \---DBD
|           \---Pg
|                   .exists
|                   Pg.bs
|                   Pg.dll
|                   Pg.exp
|                   Pg.lib
|                   
\---lib
    +---auto
    |   \---DBD
    |       \---Pg
    |               .exists
    |               
    \---DBD
            .exists
            dbd-pg.pod
            Pg.pm

However I still get an error in the SQL-Ledger admin.pl script of "No
database drivers available". Upon investigation it appears that:

sub dbdrivers {

  my @drivers = DBI->available_drivers();
  print @drivers;

  return (grep { /(Pg|Oracle)/ } @drivers);

}

in User.pm fails. If I write a script as follows:


#!c:\perl\bin\perl

  eval { require DBI; };
  print " DBI->available_drivers() reports\n";
  
  my @drivers = DBI->available_drivers();
  print @drivers;

then I get:

C:\Perl\bin>perl donovan.pl
DBI->available_drivers() reports
ExamplePProxy

A grep search of all the files on my disk and a search of the registry does
not reveal a string of "ExamplePProxy" Can anyone help me out here? How do I
get DBD-Pg going here. All help, suggestions etc. appreciated. I will run
any diagnostic scripts sent to help solve this problem.

TIA
