RE: cannot install DBD module in a HP UX system

[LBaxter]

You have not provided a lot of information but this could be as simple as not have SHLIB_PATH defined to include you $ORACLE_HOME/lib.   I have attached the makefile I use here, which will be included in the next README.hpux in the next release of DBD-Oracle I believe   I would note however, that I have only built this on PARISC2.0 (64 bit) systems is yours is a PARISC1.1 system. Has anyone built this on PA-RISC1.1 systems?   You do not indicate which version of oracle you are building against.  Version 8.1.7 is easier than 8.1.6 and earlier.  Even if you do not want to upgrade your databases right away, consider building DBD-Oracle again 8.1.7.   Hope this helps,   Lincoln         -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2003 7:11 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: cannot install DBD module in a HP UX system Importance: High   Hello Tim Bunce,   I cannot install the DBD module in my HP UX 11.00 box, as I can't understand the instuctions in the README.hpux file, no idea what do when I got stuck up with the following error   *****************************************************************************************************************************************************   PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /opt/perl/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib -I/opt/perl/lib/5.6.1/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi -I/opt/perl/lib/5.6.1 -e 'use Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;' t/*.t t/base............../usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: LhtStrCreate (code)  from /u01/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib//libwtc8.sl /usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: LhtStrInsert (code)  from /u01/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib//libwtc8.sl Failed to load Oracle extension and/or shared libraries: install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load 'blib/arch/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.sl' for module DBD::Oracle: Unresolved external at /opt/perl/lib/5.6.1/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 206.  at (eval 1) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3.
