I tried to install the DBD::Oracle module at a HPUX machine (HP-UX hp-sport B.11.00 U 9000/856). There is the following perl available: perl -v This is perl, v5.6.0 built for PA-RISC1.1
In a first step I installed the DBI module in version 1.38. Then I did a "perl Makefile.PL" and "make" for DBD-Oracle-1.14. Then I did a "make test" which gives the following error: hp-sport(pberg):/home/pberg/DBD-Oracle-1.14> make test /bin/sh -c true /bin/sh -c true PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib -I/opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1 -I/opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0 -e 'use Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;' t/*.t t/base..............Failed to load Oracle extension and/or shared libraries: install_driver(Oracle) failed: DBD::Oracle object version 1.06 does not match bootstrap parameter 1.14 at blib/lib/DBD/Oracle.pm line 39. Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3. at t/base.t line 19 The remaining tests will probably also fail with the same error. . . . I think I had already installed an older version of DBD installed at this machine. After getting this error I deleted all the files regarding DBI/DBD under /opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1 /opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1/DBI /opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1/DBD /opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1/auto and repeated the installtion. Nothing changed. What is the problem here and how can I fix it ? Thomas -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments. See http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html
