This may or may not be obvious... Did you add the -lcl and -lpthreads as the first in the list of libraries? I have learned from experience they absolutely have to be the first two in the list in that order. Also, maybe obvious, you were compiling Perl with the -lcl and -lpthreads, right? Not only DBI?

I still can't get it to work Short form: HPUX 11.11 64 bit Oracle 8.1.7 32 bit HP extra cost compiler Perl 5.8.0 and 5.6.1 used DBI 1.18, 1,25 and 1.30 all tried DBD 1.07 and 1.12 tried. Non threading, -lcl and lpthreads added, +z added, +Z also tried alone and in combo with +z perl Makefile.PL -l tried Can not shl_load()....etc.... Static builds also tried they will not link properly used the symbol finder script to find the missing symbols, add the libraries and they are still not found. At this point I have tried each and every thing I can find on google. I still can't make it work. Can anyone offer additional suggestions? I am new to HPUX but have been working with unix since 1985. Thanks Brian
