We've heard reports of that before. Apparently, the low-level interfaces to Perl have changed incompatibly in the recent past (between 5.004 something and 5.005 something I think). We have been looking for a Perl guru who knows how to make Pg.pm work under both older and newer Perls --- breaking back revs to work with the latest doesn't seem particularly appealing :-( Know any Perl gurus? > My system is a Redhat5.1 based running 2.2.10 with updated glibc as well > as perl 5.004.04. Are you sure it's not 5.005 something? 5.004_04 is what I'm using here, and it seems perfectly happy with the current Pg.pm. The folks who reported this error before were using bleeding-edge Perls... regards, tom lane
