[ic] IC 4.5.7 - SQL is not enabled

[Ryan Hertz]

Hello everyone.  I've currently got a production MV3.x running happily; I'm 
now trying to get the latest Interchange (4.5.7 beta) going on a 
testbed.  So far, so good, Interchange daemon is running, construct demo is 
up.  I'd like to just port my MV catalog to IC and call it good 
enough.  :-)  However, I'd like to play with construct a bit and hopefully 
do some performance tuning on the HTML for those Akopians.

Here's my problem right now...  clicking on a "Buy it now" yields this error:

 From interchange/error.log:

209.140.146.41 Bb6TKWg5:209.140.146.41 - [10/October/2000:14:32:43 -0700] 
constr
uct /cgi-bin/construct/process.html Runtime error: SQL is not enabled for 
Interc
hange. Get the SQL::Statement module.

Okay, I have CPAN'd SQL::Statement, (wasn't that part of the IC bundle?) I 
don't have any SQL server running.  Anyone care to convince me to use 
SQL?  My current catalog uses flatfiles, is plenty fast...

In order to use construct, do I have to get some flavor of SQL?  When I get 
SQL running, do I need to rebuild the catalog?  Am I missing some very 
important configuration?

Any tidbits are appreciated.

Thanks.
