 A few weeks ago Russ posted the following :-

-----------------Russ's posting --------------------

 I'm having problems with the libpq call PQexec.

 I'm almost positive the problem stems from trying to integrate my
 postgres and a mosaic form server. If anyone knows what I'm talking about,
 please help. Here's some more details.

 I am setting up a world-wide-web server and want to be able to use postgres to
 keep track of some things. So I've got a some data that the user inputs via
 a Mosaic form, this form get submitted to a.out, which parses it, and queries
 postgres. For some reason the program just hangs on
   PQexec("begin");

   Before I make this call the program has succesfully executed
   PQtrace();
   PQsetdb("dbname");
   buff=PQdb();

   I have tried removing all traces of the www interface and the program ran 
   succesfully, so that's why I think the problem lies there.

   Thanks
   Russ

 Unfortuately no one replied to this. I am having the exact same problem.

 Any useful hints or any advice would be appreciated......I've been working
 on this problem for 2 days now....and I'm about to give up unless I get
 some help!!
