Problem With DB_File Installation On Red-Hat Linux 7.1

Problem Locating DB_File.PM at startup of perl script
Hi all, I've run into a very frustrating problem. I'm getting the old Can't locate loadable object for module... error, yet the file does exist in the @INC path.

Re: Problem Locating DB_File.PM at startup of perl script
Interesting question. The file owner is root. However, I actually launched the perl cgi from the shell as root and got the error message, so I'm not sure that matching the file owner with the owner of the httpd process would make much difference (yet).

Re: Problem Locating DB_File.PM at startup of perl script
BTW, executing the script seemed to be able to locate CGI, DBI, and POSIX just fine.

Re: Problem Locating DB_File.PM at startup of perl script
Ken, Thanks for your reply. It does makes sense, eventhough I'm new to perl modules and their implementation. BTW, do you know what that file would be named? I installed it under perl 5.6.0, but when I try to install it under 5.6.1 I get the error (which seems to be a linker error) /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldb. A bit of research lead me to some mention of needing a libdb2 version, but I haven't gotten to deep into it yet and am hoping that I can use my previous installation of DB_File (under 5.6.0) for now. Cheers, James Ken Williams wrote: Hi James, The loadable object is not the .pm file, it's the binary compiled object file that DB_File.pm needs to bootstrap. Sounds like you need to reinstall the module. [EMAIL PROTECTED] (James McKim) wrote: Hi all, I've run into a very frustrating problem.

Problem With Perl Versions
Hello all, In trying to upgrade a RedHat Linux7.0 system I inherited to Perl5.6.0 There are several versions of perl installed on the system and I've run into a problem restarting the server. To set a context for you all, I'm not a perl or apache expert, so I may be (OK probably) missing something here. I got the following message when trying to start the server. --- [Fri Jul 13 10:37:24 2001] [error] Perl 5.00564 required--this is only version 5.00503, stopped at /etc/httpd//lib.pm line 3.

Note that I'm trying to use the use lib syntax in init.pl to point Apache and Perl to the set of perl5.6.0 directories where the perl modules live as they doesn't seem to be pointing to the right directories. So, this seems to be sort of a catch 22 . It's telling me that I don't have the right version, yet when I invoke perl, it tells me that I have a totally different version. It appears that somehow, Apache is trying to use a version of perl other than that currently on the system. I don't know if this means its pointing to modules that are old or even how thinks it knows what the current version is. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, James
Re: Problem With Perl Versions
Thanks for the suggestion. It seems odd since libperl.so and libperl.a are in the 5.6.0 directories and seem to have been created when I installed the 5.6.0 version, but I don't know where the binary is it thinks it should be using, so recompiling may help.
