[SQL-Ledger-users] New User Install problems on Debian system

[John F. <jf...@au...>]

I have just installed the latest version of SQL-Ledger on my
Debian Woody/Sid system. I keep getting the error "database is offline"
however I am able to login and edit the database from the command line
using the >psql command, and also using Webmin. I noticed that you have
the "Driver=Pg" in your example. This may be correct for my system but I
am not sure. I do have gdbm, db, dbi, odbc, modules for apache, perl,
postgresql, all installed. I am at a loss as to what I am doing wrong. I
simply can not get the scripts to login to the database. I have the
sql-ledger installed in /var/www/sql-ledger. I have created a symlink
from there to /usr/lib/cgi-bin. This is working. I was able to add
myself as a user and followed your example. I must say that I have been
using MySQL for several years, but this is my first attempt to use
Postgresql. I have postgreSQL7.0 installed and boot mesg shows the
postmaster is running. Any tips or pointers would be appreciated.
