Hello

I'm trying to create a new language in my database (pg 8 beta5 - Windows Xp) and the error message show me.

C:\Arquivos de programas\PostgreSQL\8.0.0-beta5\bin>createlang.exe pltcl -d supremus -h localhost -U administrador
Password:
createlang: language installation failed: ERROR: could not load library "C:/Arquivos de programas/PostgreSQL/8.0.0-beta5/lib/pltcl.dll": error

What the problem ?
The pg8 for windows beta5 don't have support to this language type ?

Tks

staing....

Good question. The unhelpful error message can evidently be blamed on
this routine in src/backend/port/dynloader/win32.c:

char *
dlerror(void)
{
return "error";
}

Would someone work on providing a non-stub version of that?

Re: [pgsql-hackers-win32] PLTCL

OK, I updated the error message to be:

return "dynamic load error";

and added a TODO item for Win32:

o Improve dlerror() reporting string
