I had this problem also with redhat 7.1, and I fixed it the same way. I believe it is caused by loading two different versions of the same shared object into the Apache webserver. In my case, I was loading one version (db2) of berkeley db with:
LoadModule db_auth_module modules/mod_auth_db.so and then a different version with DB_File.so inside mod_perl. If you leave the /usr/include/db.h pointing to db3/db.h when you compile DB_File, it results in a version 3 DB_File.so object. Another solution would probably be to comment out the LoadModule statement in your .conf. But that would only work if you don't need it for anything. -Adi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > I have seen this one before, you will have to recompile DB_File.pm.
