Ok... Thanks for the advice.

My suggestion: don't build a static version. There be dragons on that path.

RE: Installing DBI that works with static version of Perl
Tim: I need to create a perl distribution that I can distribute via a Solaris package. I thought the best way to do this is create a static version. Let me know if you think otherwise. (I am not a perl internals guru). I recompiled perl as dynamic and trying it this way to see if it works. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

You're heading into a world of pain, so you'd better have a very good reason to want to go that way. Tim.

Installing DBI that works with static version of Perl
I have compiled a static version of perl and attempting to install DBI and DBD drivers also. This is the error I receive... Can't load module DBI, dynamic loading not available in this perl. (You may need to build a new perl executable which either supports dynamic loading or has the DBI module statically linked into it.) at /opt/GEOPS/GEOPSaudit/DBI-1.607-Worked/blib/lib/DBI.pm line 263 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /opt/GEOPS/GEOPSaudit/DBI-1.607-Worked/blib/lib/DBI.pm line 263 I'm at a loss. I have tried to compile DBD with perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=static and still having issues. Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated!!!
