dbd::informix with no test db

dbd::informix with no test db

am 21.10.2005 20:37:28 von matthew

i have to setup a dbd::informix without being able to create a test db.
is this possible? basically everything looks like its working great
(everything is compiling fine until it tries to connect to a database).

I can only assume there is some way around this correct? .i tried
setting the mentioned *NO_RESOURCE/NO_DBCREATE env's to yes as mentioned
but its still trying. ideas?

for the search engines.

I did find that DBD::Informix 2005.2 does not play well with Debian
Sarge's 1.46-6 dbi package. I had to install DBI 1.48 to get it
(DBD::Informix 2005.2) to compile.

Dear Matt,

Thanks for the complete follow-up.

I wonder if the significance is that you created DBI (and it happened to be
1.48), rather than that DBD::Informix 2005.02 does not work with DBI 1.46?

That is, if you downloaded DBI 1.46 and built it, would DBD::Informix still
work? I don't know - and you don't have to spend the time finding out if yo=
u
don't want to -- it is idle curiosity on my part. However, if you can
demonstrate that DBD::Informix 2005.02 has problems with DBI 1.46, I'll hav=
e
to do some checking on other platforms...
