Thank you Bjorn!
I wish I haven't sent the email to look for the 5.8.6 source code. It was wasting your valuable time. I am sorry. I have compiled successfully the DBI by following your suggestion. I am using DBI 1.48, Perl 5.8.7 and AIX 5.2, ML05. I think I should mention: when I re-built Perl 5.8.7 from source code, I met one test failing. Following is the message: Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail Failed List of Failed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------- op/stat.t 82 6 7.32% 47 49 52 55 58 61 55 tests and 212 subtests skipped. Failed 1/941 test scripts, 99.89% okay. 6/99805 subtests failed, 99.99% okay. root[torts51]/lpp_fs/perl/perl-5.8.7/t: I tried Perl 5.8.6 installation from source code, and I met the same thing. So I think either version should be OK. I just passed it and went to DBI installation for perl 5.8.7. It is successful. So far, I haven't met problem with DBI. Thank you again, Bjorn!

Following your suggestion, I am trying to re-build the perl. Unfortunately, I am only able to find the perl 5.8.7 source code(not 5.8.6 as in your doc), and failed. Would you tell me where I can find perl 5.8.6 source code? Thank you very much!

I attached my installation process for dbi and dbd:oracle on ibm aix5.2. Hope it helps you.

This is Larry Li from Toronto. I am trying to install DBI on AIX 5.2. I am facing the following failure. Step 1: seems it succeeded. root[torts51]/lpp_fs/perl/DBI-1.48: perl Makefile.PL *** You are using a perl configured with threading enabled. *** You should be aware that using multiple threads is *** not recommended for production environments. *** Note: The optional PlRPC-modules (RPC::PlServer etc) are not installed.

Remember to actually *read* the README file! Use 'make' to build the software (dmake or nmake on Windows). Then 'make test' to execute self tests.
