[Haskell-cafe] HDBC PostgreSQL

[Patrick Brannan]

Hello,

I'm getting back into Haskell after an absence of a few years. I'm in
the process of trying to connect to postgresql with hdbc-postgresql on
a Windows XP box.

Seemingly, things installed without  a problem, but at the command
prompt I get the following:

Prelude> :module Database.HDBC Database.HDBC.PostgreSQL
module `Database.HDBC.PostgreSQL' is not loaded

If I run ghci this way with package options here's what I get:

C:\work\haskell\HDBC-postgresql-2.1.0.0>ghci -package HDBC -package
HDBC-postgresql
GHCi, version 6.10.4: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help

Prelude> module HDBC HDBC.PostgreSQL

Now I would think that the line "Loading package
HDBC-postgresql-2.1.0.0 ... linking ... done." means that the module
is installed correctly, but I still can't execute the :module
statement.

Does anyone have any ideas about where I should start? It's probably
something stupid, but I'm a little worn out on searching.

Thank you,
Patrick
