Dear Pericles,
As Swaminathan, Gayathri <gayathri at ou.edu> pointed out, the problem =
about LIBPQ.dll was that I did not have that dll so I donloaded and it =
seemed everything was ok, as I got a message:
"This script can only be used to decode form results and
should be initiated as a CGI process via a httpd server."
But now I installed the demo and still I got the=20
"CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set =
of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:"
with nothing else!!!. Should I get the following: "No query =
information to decode. QUERY_STRING is set, but empty.", shouldn't I?=20
Maybe the right version for me could be the 3.6... what do you think?
Regards,
Mario
