That's OK, but get the latest version of DBD::ODBC (version 0.45_15) as there's a fix in there specifically for that version. > > Who distributes unixODBC version 2.2.3? Why is it better? www.unixodbc.org I prefer it now because, mostly, the developer works with DBD::ODBC and lurks around dbi-users mailing list. That's a great help for me, when I (or others) have issues. I can't really debate one vs. the other, since I'm not up on the latest versions of iODBC. The reason that I mentioned it is that Makefile.PL detected (or thought it detected) unixODBC, not iODBC. It should detect that. If you could track down the files it's looking for on iODBC and why it can't find them, that would be helpful...and, that *is* a problem if it detects one and the other is the right one.
