I am trying to install DBI-1.30. The OS is Solaris 2.8. When doing the perl Makefile.PL it runs o.k., but when doing the make I get an error.
Here is an output when doing perl Makefile.PL: # perl Makefile.PL *** Note: The optional PlRPC-modules (RPC::PlServer etc) are not installed. If you want to use the DBD::Proxy driver and DBI::ProxyServer modules, then you'll need to install the RPC::PlServer, RPC::PlClient, Storable and Net::Daemon modules. The CPAN Bundle::DBI may help you. You can install them any time after installing the DBI. You do *not* need these modules for typical DBI usage. Optional modules are available from any CPAN mirror, in particular http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-module http://www.perl.org/CPAN/modules/by-module ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/modules/by-module Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_01basics_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_02dbidrv_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_03hleak_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_04mods_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_05thrclone_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_10examp_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_15array_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_20meta_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_30subclass_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_40profile_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_60preparse_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_70shell_pp.t Creating extra DBI::PurePerl test: t/zz_80proxy_pp.t Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for DBI Remember to actually *read* the README file! Use 'make' to build the software (dmake or nmake on Windows). Then 'make test' to execute self tests. Then 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this working directory before unpacking and building any DBD::* drivers. # make /usr/bin/perl -I/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris -I/usr/perl5/5.00503 -MExtUtil :Command -e mkpath blib/lib/DBI mkdir blib mkdir blib/lib mkdir blib/lib/DBI rm -f blib/lib/DBI/Changes.pm cp Changes blib/lib/DBI/Changes.pm mkdir blib/arch mkdir blib/arch/auto mkdir blib/arch/auto/DBI mkdir blib/lib/auto mkdir blib/lib/auto/DBI mkdir blib/man1 mkdir blib/man3 cp lib/DBI/Profile.pm blib/lib/DBI/Profile.pm cp Driver_xst.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/Driver_xst.h cp lib/DBI/W32ODBC.pm blib/lib/DBI/W32ODBC.pm cp lib/DBD/ExampleP.pm blib/lib/DBD/ExampleP.pm cp lib/DBI/FAQ.pm blib/lib/DBI/FAQ.pm cp lib/DBI/Shell.pm blib/lib/DBI/Shell.pm cp lib/DBI/ProxyServer.pm blib/lib/DBI/ProxyServer.pm cp lib/Bundle/DBI.pm blib/lib/Bundle/DBI.pm cp lib/DBI/Const/GetInfo/ANSI.pm blib/lib/DBI/Const/GetInfo/ANSI.pm cp lib/DBD/Proxy.pm blib/lib/DBD/Proxy.pm cp DBIXS.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/DBIXS.h cp lib/DBI/Const/GetInfoReturn.pm blib/lib/DBI/Const/GetInfoReturn.pm cp dbd_xsh.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/dbd_xsh.h cp lib/DBI/Const/GetInfoType.pm blib/lib/DBI/Const/GetInfoType.pm cp dbi_sql.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/dbi_sql.h cp lib/DBD/NullP.pm blib/lib/DBD/NullP.pm cp lib/DBD/Sponge.pm blib/lib/DBD/Sponge.pm cp lib/DBI/Format.pm blib/lib/DBI/Format.pm cp lib/DBI/Const/GetInfo/ODBC.pm blib/lib/DBI/Const/GetInfo/ODBC.pm cp lib/DBI/DBD.pm blib/lib/DBI/DBD.pm cp Driver.xst blib/arch/auto/DBI/Driver.xst cp DBI.pm blib/lib/DBI.pm cp lib/Win32/DBIODBC.pm blib/lib/Win32/DBIODBC.pm cp dbipport.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/dbipport.h cp lib/DBI/PurePerl.pm blib/lib/DBI/PurePerl.pm /usr/bin/perl -p -e "s/~DRIVER~/Perl/g" < blib/arch/auto/DBI/Driver.xst > Perl si /usr/bin/perl -I/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris -I/usr/perl5/5.00503 /usr/perl 5.00503/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap /usr/perl5/5.00503/ExtUtils/typemap Perl.xs stmp.c && mv xstmp.c Perl.c cc -c -xO3 -xdepend -DVERSION=\"1.30\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.30\" -KPIC -I/u /perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris/CORE -DDBI_NO_THREADS Perl.c cc: unrecognized option `-KPIC' cc: language depend not recognized cc: Perl.c: linker input file unused because linking not done /usr/bin/perl -I/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris -I/usr/perl5/5.00503 /usr/perl 5.00503/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap /usr/perl5/5.00503/ExtUtils/typemap DBI.xs > tmp.c && mv xstmp.c DBI.c cc -c -xO3 -xdepend -DVERSION=\"1.30\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.30\" -KPIC -I/u /perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris/CORE -DDBI_NO_THREADS DBI.c cc: unrecognized option `-KPIC' cc: language depend not recognized cc: DBI.c: linker input file unused because linking not done Running Mkbootstrap for DBI () chmod 644 DBI.bs LD_RUN_PATH="" cc -o blib/arch/auto/DBI/DBI.so -G DBI.o cc: DBI.o: No such file or directory cc: no input files *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `blib/arch/auto/DBI/DBI.so' Here is output for make test: #
