Hi
For the one wondering why the Perl lib doesn't work with monetdb , this is the answer from the developer :
MonetDB::CLI::MapiPP still speaks protocol version 4, not 5.
Maybe the libMapi based MonetDB::CLI::MapiLib works with the
current version - I didn't test it.

Objet : RE: [Monetdb-developers] Cannot get perl talking to monetdb5 nightly stable
Hi Everyone,
I'm also experiencing some difficulties with Perl - i've spent the past 3 days trying to get this to work but i can't find any log, any error message etc ...
I've installed all the perl libs , but when i run the test script, it's just stay there indefinitely with no output,no error - this is the script :
cat monetdb2.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use DBI();
my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:monetdb:');
my $sth = $dbh->prepare('SELECT * FROM env');
$sth->execute;
$sth->dump_results;
I'm running monetdb with the following command:
root@ulys:~# mserver5 --dbinit="include sql;" --dbname=demo --daemon=yes
# MonetDB server v5.6.0, based on kernel v1.24.0
# Serving database 'demo'

# Listening for connection requests on mapi:monetdb://127.0.0.1:50000/
# MonetDB/SQL module v2.24.0 loaded
when i kill the monetdb daemon, my perl script is throwing this error :
# ./monetdb2.pl
Caught a SIGPIPE at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/MonetDB/CLI/MapiPP.pm line 93

$ = DBD::monetdb::st::execute('DBI::st=HASH(0x83a683c)') called from file `./monetdb2.pl' line 8
Aborted
Also i can connect with no problem with mclient (no password required).
Please advise on how to get perl talking to monetdb5.
Thanks in advance,
SB

[Monetdb-developers] Cannot get perl talking to monetdb5 nightly stableFrom: Rt Ibmer - 2008-06-17 02:06
I am using the nightly stable build of monetdb5. All outside of perl->monetdb seems to
be working just fine. I just can't get perl to talk to the db.
Here's what I did:
- installed from nightly stable source on Fedora 8
- copied the source from http://homepages.cwi.nl/~mk/MonetDB/The-Perl-Library.html into
mytest.pl
- tried running: perl /tmp/mytest.pl
but it came back complaining about missing libs in @INC.
So then I added these steps:
- /var/tmp/MonetDB-1213632062/MonetDB-client/clients/src/perl
- make install
and also ran make instlal in the various subdirs like MonetDB-CLI and others (not sure if
this step was necessar)
Then I tried running the script and this time it executed without the @INC errors. So this
was progress.
However all I get is this:
-------
Start a simple Monet MIL interaction
data sources: dbi:monetdb:
--------
and then nothing. It just sits there indefinitely. In playing with the source of the .pl I
see that it is the "my $dbh = DBI->connect( $dsn, ..."
that execution stops at.
I have merovingian running and the db is started. I also tried with merovigan stopped and
just using mserver5 --dbinit="include sql;" but I had the same result.
Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.
