Hello everyone, sorry to bother you all with this, I try to keep my head
down most of the time, but I'm in a bit of a pinch here.
My chum Graham is trying to install DBD::mysql on his Solaris 5.6 box at
my request, but is having trouble. It's failing at the make stage, and he
can't figure out why. I'm none the wiser since he's a lot cleverer than I
am (that's not saying much) and I don't do a lot of make-ing anyway,
preferring to let CPAN do all that. Anybody got any suggestions?
Many heartfelt thanks in advance.
Here's some Info:
perl -v returns This is perl, v5.8.0 built for sun4-solaris
Solaris version 5.6
mysqld is definitely running on localhost since we can connect to it fine
with the mysql command line client and from elsewhere, too.
Here's our problem:
# perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-I'/usr/local/mysql/include'
"--libs=-L/usr/local/my
qlclient -lz -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm" --testdb=test
--testuser=dummy
I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:
cflags (Users choice) = -I/usr/local/mysql/include
libs (Users choice) = -L/usr/local/myqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lgen
-lsocket -lnsl -lm
nocatchstderr (default ) = 0
ssl (guessed ) = 0
testdb (Users choice) = test
testhost (default ) =
testpassword (default ) =
testuser (Users choice) = dummy
To change these settings, see 'perl Makefile.PL --help' and
'perldoc INSTALL'.

I'm sure it's something very simple that can be put down to a lack of
brains and/or experience at this end, but google isn't being much help and
is mostly giving me results of compile failures on AIX, dammit.
If anyone can help I will definitely buy them several of the alcoholic
beverages of their choice. Even at your fancy capital prices. :)
Again, thanks in advance.
