Hi,
README of this Perl module says:
---
Run 'make test'.
Note, that the user running this script must have been created with the access
rights to create databases. Do not run this script as root !
---
AFAIK Pg is quite old and no longer maintained since long (README is from 2000/04/04). Instead, DBD::Pg is the
preferredperl interface to PostgreSQL. Maybe the actual PostgreSQL protocol isn__t even supported:
---
REQUIREMENTS:
-------------
- build, test and install Perl5 (at least 5.003) - build, test and install PostgreSQL (at least 6.5)
---
And if I read the installation list correctly, they refer to DBD::Pg and not to the Pg module (eg. CentOS,
http://metanav.ntnu.no/moin.cgi/InstallingOnRHEL4):
---
yum -y install perl-DBI # Checked out, AlertEngine needs it [Engine.pm]
yum -y install perl-DBD-Pg # Checked out, AlertEngine needs it
---
So better you check the metanav installation page again, maybe you can use DBD::Pg (which is usually quite
straightforwardto install, if you installed PostgreSQL correctly).
Regards, Frank.
