I promise, if there were something that I could think of to read, I would check that out before I relied on all your time and effort. I really appreciate that you've taken the time to help me out thus far.
I've used the code Don just gave me. As AOLserver tries to load the driver, it chokes. Here's the problem:
in the server.log, I get a warning that /home/nsadmin/bin/postgres.so can't load. This is the right path of the file. The next message is undefined symbol: Ns_dbAddColumnInfo. I've gone through the driver code (there are 4 references in postgres.c and 1 in postgres-backup.c) but I haven't tried to really debug the .c. I'm assuming the problem is somewhere else.
Any ideas?
