That looks like Perl code.
Which CPAN module are you using?

Judging by the PGRES_TUPLES_OK bit, I'm guessing it's either the
very-experimental Pg::PQ, or more likey - the ancient Pg module.

I just ask, because I don't think that module has been maintained since
the 20th Century! I mean, it's seriously out of date. It was built
against Postgresql version 6!

I believe everyone using Perl with PostgreSQL uses the DBD::Pg module
now - if you're having client errors, I really think you should look at
moving to it as well.


I hope this helps,
