Hi, Have you set the value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH? Have you installed an ODBC driver manager as well as an ODBC driver? Try to you connect to the DB using 'odbctest', a provided test program, before you attempt your make. Have you defined top_srcdir via 'configure?

Can u just tell me the Driver manager and its installation procedure.. I will tell u what i did .. 1.

All the required setenv has been done. 2. Driver Manager (iODBC from www.iodbc.org (libiodbc-3.0.6)) Installation Info: To install this I ran the Following command as given in its Documentations a. ./configure --prefix=/u/janarthp --with-iodbc-inidir=/u/janarthp/Tar/ODBC/Single-Tier/lite/bin * here i give the odbc location as the location of the odbc.ini file i got after installing the driver. b. make c. make install It got installed. 3. DBD:ODBC (0.45.x) Installation info: ran makefile.PL and installed at /u/janarthp/Tar/ODBC/DBD_ODBC/DBD I have set the Env_variables DBI_DSN , DBI_USER , DBI_PASS as 'gel(as defined in the odbc.ini file of the driver)' , 'sa' , '' ( Database is a SQL.) My basic doubt arised here: should i ran the makefile.PL with ODBCHOME variable set? I did it but gave some error like this when i tested with a Perl script. error: install_driver(ODBC) failed: Can't locate loadable object for module DBD::ODBC in @INC (@INC contains: /u/janarthp/Tar/ODBC/DBD_ODBC /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /prod/tools/packages/lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris /prod/tools/packages/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /prod/tools/packages/lib/perl5 .) at (eval 1) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3. Perhaps a module that DBD::ODBC requires hasn't been fully installed at test.pl line 6 Please clear me out here. Also i need to know as how there is a link between all these three components. what i understood while installing is: driver-->($driver/bin/odbc.ini) -- > Driver Manager (ODBCHOME= $iODBC_location) ---> DBD:ODBC -- > (used by perl) [Is this what the happenings inside ] As it is telling that it couldn't load the perl module (included it in the @INC also), i don;t think that DBD:ODBC is having any problem. help needed... thanks, Prassana -----Original Message----- From: Levine, Peter W [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2002 8:03 PM To: Janarthanan, Prasanna Subject: RE: Error while running odbctest It worked for me connecting to MS SQL server.
