I have written a perl module that uses XS to reach out to a password database and retrieve a password for eventual use in DBI. My problem is Linux related. I have compiled and tested this code on HP and Sun and it works just fine there. However on my RedHat AS2.1 box, the code refuses to function correctly. My first errors were related to getting perl to find Sybase libs. One of my colleagues suggested that I use LD_PRELOAD to identify the libraries that are required. This resolved the issues with the undefined symbol ct_cmd_alloc. Now my perl test code appears to load the module correctly, however, when it goes to execute the succeeding tests, they are being skipped as the first test which "use's" the module returns
t/1 ....ok 1/3
t/1.....dubious
Test returned status 0 (wstat 139, 0x8b)
DIED. FAILED tests 2-3
I think its still having issues with correctly loading the module, but I am unsure of where to go from here. WTF does wstat = 139 mean ? Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW, the module cores after the tests are finished.
