Re: DBD::Informix fails to build - spaces in NT file paths

Hi All I have NEVER been able to build DBD:Informix and have it test successfull on an ActiveState binary build of Perl. The ONLY way I have ever had it working on Win32 (NT / 2K and XP tested) is to build my own Perl from the ActiveState source. You need to turn the flavour=activestate (or such

RE: DBD::Informix fails to build - spaces in NT file paths

Hi Nick I spent a large amount of time last year trying to build DBD::Informix on Win32 (NT / 2000 and XP) and I made many of the same hacks you describe. I also hacked the bug report script as it simply would not run on Windows. The ONLY way I found to have the module build and pass all tests

Re: DBI

Hi I've seen this problem on a box I have that has a couple of different perl (and module) installs on it. Either you have 2 versions of perl installed and you're picking up part of DBI from the wrong one or (more likely) you have had an older version of DBI installed at some time and the new ve

RE: ActivePerl & DBI - can't build DBI1.20

Hi Guys I've just created a PPM of DBI 1.20. I compiled the code against ActiveState build 630 using VC++ 6. No problems encountered. I've done MINOR testing here and the module installs and works so far OK. If anyone one wants the PPM then let me know (if too many people want it I'll chuck it

Re: DBD::MYSQL not there on activestate.com?

Hi Henry I recently installed the latest ActiveState release and it gives the option of installing both versions of PPM if I remeber correctly. I may not - it's late in the day here and I've been trying to build DBD::Informix on HPUX 10.20 for the past FOUR hours ;-) Cheers Paul ***

Re: DBI::Informix On WinnT

Hi Bart I have had exactly the same experience on Win NT / 2000. Are you using ActiveState Perl by any chance ? Unfortunately the only way I managed to get DBD::Informix to work was to recompile Perl from the source making sure that the Flavour=ActiveState line in the makefile

Re: Problems compiling DBD::Informix on Win2K

Hi All I've solved the problems building on Win2K. The answer was to build perl myself using the ActiveState Build 629 source and then build DBI and DBD::Informix on to of it. I guess it all comes back to using the same compiler to build perl and DBD::* I'll contribute an "it works" soon. Chee

Hello Again ! OK, I started thinking maybe this is a true Windows 2000 / NT incompatibility so I built an NT4.0 box, installed VC++ 6.0, Informix Client SDK 2.30 (esql version 9.21.TC1), perl 5.6 (ActiveState build 623) and DBI 1.14 and attempted to build DBD::Informix ... ... exactly the same
