I know, it's a basic question (sory) but i didn't find doc.
I'm working with Postgres6.3.2 and pgacess0.9 (with Linux Redhat 5.2 or
Debian 2.0)
I've done :
* on root account
* su postgres
* createuser Dizzy (this user already exists (users-group))
* that's was Ok
* on Dizzy account
*createdb KADOCKDB
*psql KADOCKDB
*create table client (nom_client char(20) not null primary
key);
And all seems OK
But with Pgaccess, I can't open database
Host localhost
Port 5432 (???)
Database KADOCKDB
Username Dizzy
Password (Dizzy-Password)
Error connecting database
Is postmaster running (Yes )
and accepting TCP.IP connection at 'localhost' on port '5432' (I don't
know)
Thanks for you answer
( Where can i find documentation and script about
Apache->CGI(Perl)->Postgres ?)
(I've downloaded DBI an DBD)

By default postgres only listens on Unix domain sockets NOT TCP/IP. You
need to edit the startup script for postgres and pass the call to
postmaster the "-i" parameter. You should see this and more with man
postmaster. I use my own build of postgres so my startup scripts is home
brew, but you can start by following the symbolic link in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d
(if you boot the server to text console) or /etc/rc.d/rc5.d (if the server
boots to some x login). To do this just do an "ls -l | grep post" you
should see where the link points.
As for apache, perl, and postgres I have found if I scrutinized the
directores in the DBD-Pg-<version> directory there is a test.pl for both
standard ops and one for blobs. Note, If your "make test" when you
installed the DBD-Pg stuff that means that the code in test.pl will run.
And is therefore the best simple example around. As far as general doc
on DBI I found great examples to get me started at
www.hermetica.com/technologia/perl/DBI.
