Hi Tim, HP reccomendations ------------------ Concerning HP requirements, I followed most of reccomendations from Garry Ferguson available at http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg18687.html The most important difference concerns the LINKTYPE of dbi and dbd. I didn't force it to static.
Libraries specified at link time -------------------------------- I had to find the two libraries (-lnjni9 -ljip9) after some errors in the "make test" of DBD. t/cursor..... /usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: nnftboot (plabel) from /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/lib32/libclntsh.sl.9.0 .... I simply followed the findSymbol script specified in README.hpux. I'm not confident in fixing it in Makefile.PL SHLIB_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH ------------------------------ SHLIB_PATH is necessary at compile/link time the two lib dirs in LD_LIBRARY_PATH are needed at runtime. lib is needed for 64 bits tools like sqlplus, lib32 is needed by perl, compiled in 32 bits, right. But it works.

Did "build rule discovery" work for you? If not, can you fix it? Tim. p.s. I don't know anything about HPUX so hopefully others can help out here.
