PostgreSQL 6.5.2

Version 6.5.2
Hardware:   sparc-sun-solaris2.7
Compiled with gcc 2.8.1

User: Novice

I have a PERL script that I use to create the database ieee_papers. This
script work with the previous version of
PostgreSQL 6.5.1. Since I was only in the test stage of 6.5.1 when 6.5.2
came out, I decided to blow away
6.5.1 and compile 6.5.2 .

Now when I run this same script, I receive the following error message.
Have  anyone reported this type
of message?

The database ieee_papers seem like it's getting created.

Thanks.
