It's trying to use the cc compiler because that is what Perl was built with. Modules with binary components (like DBI and most DBDs) must be built with the same compiler and libraries as the Perl was.
You need to either build your own Perl with your local compiler and then build any modules you need, or you need to get the add-on cc compiler. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.htm Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
