New info : I decided to copy an existing perl, DBI, DBD installation from another server where oracle 9.0.1 was already installed ( 64 bit ) and where perl did work. Then I recompiled DBI-1.20 and DBD-ORACLE-1.12 without problems on the server.
However I'm back to my first problem now. The problem that lead to the uninstall of all perl relevant files on my system. It started when iinstalled oracle 901 and now it's back ( it's haunting me ) On a dbi->connect i get : DBI->connect(servwhdbod1) failed: ERROR OCIEnvInit at W9360251 line 138 Segmentation fault(coredump) I examined the core file with dbx and got the following information : root@servwh:/softw/verwerk # dbx /usr/bin/perl core Type 'help' for help. reading symbolic information ...warning: no source compiled with -g [using memory image in core] Segmentation fault in kpminit at 0xd24e0ed4 ($t1) 0xd24e0ed4 (kpminit+0xac) 93df0000 stw r30,0x0(r31) Any ideas? Greetz --------------------------- Ruedi, As we upgraded our machine ( pathsets, osupgrade, ... ) to 64bit and our oracle installation is working perfectly, we won't change to 32 bit. I was kinda afraid of support for 64-bit. Although i find it weird it works on another system. Wil ltry my copy method tomorrow and see if that works if not, i will give up and use ksh for my dbchecks.

Regards Ruedi :-) >>> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 09/11/02 02:29pm >>> I'm new to this list and would like to say hi to everyone in it first of all. I am in seacrh for a solution for my problem for 5 days now and i am becoming a bit desperate. Here's my description : Before I installed oracle 9i on my server Perl, DBI and DBD::Oracle worked in perfect harmony. But with the instalation came the problems. So i decided to reinstall everything from perl, DBI and DBD. After some struggles with the 64 bit AIX ( on rs6000 ), I came to a perfect installation of perl "Perl v5.8.0 built for aix-64all-stdio" and DBI-1.20. However when i try to install DBD::Oracle 1.12 i get the following : perl Makefile.PL.txt make.txt ( see attachments ) The errormessage i get is : ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: ksmsgl_ ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: ksbdpt_ ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more information. make: The error code from the last command is 8. Stop. I have tried to compile with the 8 libraries from Oracle but then i get a whole lot errors about the 64bit mode ( XCOFF64 not available in 32 bit mode , ... ) I'm a bit stuck here and would love some help from the experts thanks in advance for your time. greetz Bjorn Naessens Roularta IT Solutions ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - This message is intended for the addressee only and may contain confidential or privileged information.
