Re: [Codestriker-user] Receiving configuration error while installing version 1.9.1

[Jason R. <jre...@ya...>]

Hi,

I just updated to 1.9.1 and ran install.pl ok. The only way I could get it to fail was to run
install.pl from another directory besides bin. Did you cd into bin when you ran the script? 

Here is the code that sends out the error from install.pl

# Make sure the $db configuration variable has been set, and if not
# complain and exit.
if (! defined $Codestriker::db) {
    print STDERR
        "The database configuration variable \$db has not been set.\n";
    print STDERR
        "Please edit the codestriker.conf file and run this command again.\n";
    exit -1;
}

I think it is OK. So, if you where in the bin directory, please send out what OS and version of
perl you are using. I tested it under debian sarge, with perl 5.8.4.

Thanks
Jason.
