[dpholmes]

hi everyone, i'm very new to python and to this forum. i'm actually
just trying to work through the tutorial on webpy.org. so far, so
good, but as i tried to incorporate a postgresql database into the
demo web app i'm receiving this error print out:

Apparently you don't have pgdb installed or it's path isn't in your
PYTHONPATH environment variable.

It looks like you just haven't installed PyGreSQL yet. <http://
www.pygresql.org/>

Future web.py questions should probably be directed to the web.py
group <http://groups.google.com/group/webpy/>, though.

Thanks for the help, installing PyGreSQL was the key, I was unaware
that PostGreSQL was not all I needed. Thanks again.
