Now we know exactly how to help you! ;) Joost. _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus Is there any changes I need to make to Lazarus, or any modules or need to install in order to connect to mysql? I am copying the sample programme on Wiki that sets up a form to query a database. The message I get is Error: invalid compiler: file "/home/kirkpatc/FreePascal/fpc/compiler/ppc386" does not exist I have a directory /home/ejm/.lazarus but can't see a compiler in it. I can compile and run programmes without db involvement. There must be something in my source looking for a compiler in the wrong place :-( Eric |
