Still attempting to load DBD::Oracle (HPUX 11i , Perl 5.8) I got it past make by substituting all +s and +n's with -W1 and -Wl .
Now test is failing with the error (s) : Exec format error at /opt/perl/lib/5.8.0/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at (eval 1) line 3 Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at t/base.t line 19 (Perl works fine with other modules) If anyone has any ideas of where to go from here, I certainly would appreciate it. I'm almost to the point of using Activestate and windows as the Perl Server, connected to the HP, since that works right now. I hate saying that, because I hate windows products. I really would like to make this work under Unix!! Thanks. Nancy
