Hello. I have been trying to get an application (SQL-Ledger) to run on a sparc box with solaris 11.4. Apache's log complains it can't find dbd-Pg (Postgresql-13 is the DB I'm using). What I did was to download the dbd-pg bundle, saw it had .pm's in it and placed it in /usr/perl5 in a subdirectory included in apache's idea of what @INC was.
FWIW I have also tried to compile it but 'perl Makefile.pl' dies with a complaint on the code. Is it incorrect that one can not drop in a perl module like I did? I always thought that, to some extent, the host's perl binaries would handle the CPU/architecture aspects of the host and run the module without issue. I'm no coder and have never had a sparc-based machine so this qualifies as an "adventure", but the box was practically a give-away and I couldn't resist. My background is a history of using FreeBSD but there 'make-install-clean' just always seemed to work. I'm not inclined to use dbd-oracle. Grateful for any hints here. dbd-pg has always been trouble-free on fbsd and omnios. Thanks, r ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
