Hi,
My first post: I've tried my best to get the Linux engine to
successfully hit PostgreSQL. I put a libpq.so.2 into play as described
back on Mar 1 to workaround the missing lib error, but get
hello world
found dbPostgreSQL.so
symbols 1082168400,1082168272,1082168368
called idcounterptr/work/revolution/Revolution-2.6/revolution.x86
exiting on signal 11
from this small startup:
#!/work/revolution/Revolution-2.6/revolution.x86
on startup
put "hello world"
put
revOpenDatabase("PostgreSQL","localhost","adatabase","adbuser","apassword")
end startup
as well as having standalones and the development environment itself
crash when trying an equivalent connection in each. I copied the
supplied driver dbpostgresql.so to dbPostgreSQL.so, as rev seems to be
looking for that specific case. I have used $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point
to the database_driver, which it does seem to find. I wonder if there
are other environment variables akin to the REV_GDK_PATH that
facilitate db access. My linux is Redhat 9 and my PostgreSQL is 7.3.2,
but I've tried 8.0.1 and 8.1 too.
Does anyone have this working who would be willing to shoot me a few
insights?
Best regards,
Allen Morgan
