Hi, I'm just the DBA here, and don't get involved with hardware and O/S installation/upgrade/issues. Our kit is Bull Escala hardware (which may be re-badged IBM kit for all I know), and I'm just using the pre-installed perl, which is 5.005.03. Up till now I haven't have a problem with building most things, just the DBI 1.20 on this particular server. I got round my problem by copying over a working DBI.so from another server. Surprisingly enough the Oracle DBD 1.12 driver then built just fine on the same server (which is running Oracle 8.1.7).
One potential significant difference between your set-up, Kenny, and ours may be that here, we are not running the latest (version 5) c compiler, but are using an older version 3 compiler. Mark. PS, I've just studied your mail properly.

I am a DBA with modest IBM Aix knowledge so I probably won't be of much help. Where did you get your Perl download? I've gotten mine from http://www.rge.com/pub/systems/aix/bull/ Instructions at: http://www.rge.com/pub/systems/aix/bull/ After using smit to install the software, I read the INSTALL file to install: rm -f config.sh Policy.sh sh Configure -de make make test make install but the : sh Configure -de fails because it can't find Configure.

If I copy the working DBI.so over the invalid one, the tests work fine. However I fear the DBD build may not have this workaround. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Buckle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 25 January 2002 11:01 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: perl dbi build error on AIX 4.3.3 I'm building DBI 1.20 on a Bull Escala server. This process works fine on other similar systems, but is failing the tests on this particular server. As this server is running Oracle 8.1.7, I presume I need to build the Oracle DBD as well on this server, which I'm sure will fail too. The perl distribution is the manufacturer's :- 5.00503 The process and results are :- perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/perl/lib Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for DBI 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. Then 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this working directory before unpacking and building any DBD::* drivers. make mkdir blib mkdir blib/lib cp lib/DBI/W32ODBC.pm blib/lib/DBI/W32ODBC.pm cp lib/DBD/ExampleP.pm blib/lib/DBD/ExampleP.pm cp lib/DBI/FAQ.pm blib/lib/DBI/FAQ.pm cp lib/DBI/Shell.pm blib/lib/DBI/Shell.pm cp lib/DBI/ProxyServer.pm blib/lib/DBI/ProxyServer.pm cp lib/Bundle/DBI.pm blib/lib/Bundle/DBI.pm cp lib/DBD/Proxy.pm blib/lib/DBD/Proxy.pm cp DBIXS.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/DBIXS.h cp dbd_xsh.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/dbd_xsh.h cp dbi_sql.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/dbi_sql.h cp lib/DBD/NullP.pm blib/lib/DBD/NullP.pm cp lib/DBD/Sponge.pm blib/lib/DBD/Sponge.pm cp lib/DBI/Format.pm blib/lib/DBI/Format.pm cp lib/DBI/DBD.pm blib/lib/DBI/DBD.pm cp Driver.xst blib/arch/auto/DBI/Driver.xst cp dbipport.h blib/arch/auto/DBI/dbipport.h cp lib/Win32/DBIODBC.pm blib/lib/Win32/DBIODBC.pm cp DBI.pm blib/lib/DBI.pm /usr/bin/perl "-I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/aix" "-I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503" -e 'use ExtUtils::Mksymlists; Mksymlists("NAME" => "DBI", "DL_FUNCS" => { }, "FUNCLIST" => [], "DL_VARS" => []);' /usr/bin/perl -p -e "s/~DRIVER~/Perl/g" < blib/arch/auto/DBI/Driver.xst > Perl.xsi /usr/bin/perl -I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/aix -I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503 /usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap /usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/ExtUtils/typemap Perl.xs >xstmp.c && mv xstmp.c Perl.c cc -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE -qmaxmem=16384 -O -DVERSION=\"1.20\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.20\" -I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/aix/CORE -DDBI_NO_THREADS Perl.c "dbipport.h", line 43.43: 1506-342 (W) "/*" detected in comment. /usr/bin/perl -I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/aix -I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503 /usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap /usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/ExtUtils/typemap DBI.xs >xstmp.c && mv xstmp.c DBI.c cc -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE -qmaxmem=16384 -O -DVERSION=\"1.20\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.20\" -I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/aix/CORE -DDBI_NO_THREADS DBI.c "dbipport.h", line 43.43: 1506-342 (W) "/*" detected in comment.
