Hello,
I have a slight problem finishing my install of DBD-Oracle. I have read
the list archive, and tried the solutions but to no avail. I would very
much appreciate any hints of what to do to solve the problem.
Config:
perl 5.6.0
DBI - 1.14
DBD-1.06
Oracle 8.1.7
Compaq - OSF 5.1 (true 64)
C compiler from compaq
Problem:
make test fails with unresolved symbols:
t/general...........install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load
'blib/arch/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so' for module DBD::Oracle: dlopen:
blib/arch/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so: symbol "upihst" unresolved at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/alpha-dec_osf/DynaLoader.pm line 200.
My ORACLE_HOME and LD_LIBRARY_PATH are correct.
I did ldd -r Oracle.so to see what libraries where being searched, and
which symbols are missing.
I am not sure I understand where these should be:
for example, where are supposed to be the PL_ stuff?
and why does it have problems finding symbols in libc?

libaio_raw.so => /usr/shlib/libaio_raw.so
libm.so => /usr/shlib/libm.so
libpthread.so => /usr/shlib/libpthread.so
My last install of DBD-Oracle was on Solaris, with Oracle 7.1.3, and I
remember that I had to put all libraries a few times to make sure all
was OK. Is that still the case?
should I include -lclntsh -lc a few times in various positions in the ld
command of the makefile?
and should that also be a few times in LD_RUN_PATH? currently they are
both once at the end of that.
I have tried but obviously did not put them at the correct position
since nothing changed
Thanks in advance for any explanation that clarifies what is going on -
or solves the problem ;-)
cheers
PatRT
