my system requirement is almost the same as the example on

http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=568380

I even tried newer versions with the same troubles, as "punkish" got:

1.) Postgres Version: 8.1 (event tried 8.2)
2.) Perl Version: 5.8.8 (Build 819) from (Activestate for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread)
3.) DBD::Pg Version: 1.45 ($Id: Pg.pm,v 1.187 2006/02/26 19:04:23 turnstep Exp $)
4.) WinXP SP2
5.) Windows Dialog Box - no message at all

The "piece of code" is quite easy :-)

With some 'print "Hello world\n"'-debugging, if figured out, that the error returns in line 156 where "DBD::Pg::db::_login" is called. 

My modification

		# Connect to the database..
                print "Hello world\n";
		DBD::Pg::db::_login($dbh, $dbname, $user, $pass) or return undef;
                print "Hello world\n";

leads to just one "Hello world" on the output console. Searching the code for "_login" gave just one result (this in line 156)! In other words: There is no DBD::Pg::db::_login in my Pg.pm
Note that I installed the package using ppm. Maybe anything went wrong with the installation. Any advise will be welcome. I attached Pg.pm.

Greetings from Hamburg,
Marco.
