The file command is not listing permissions, nor size. What is the output of 'ls -l /opt/perl5_64/lib/site_perl/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0-LP64/auto/DBD/Oracle'?
What happens if you run the test script from the command line as the user who starts Apache? ----------------- Ron Reidy Lead DBA Array BioPharma, Inc. -----Original Message----- From: Wales, Stephen (RTSI) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2005 10:37 AM To: dbi-users@perl.org Subject: DBD::Oracle 1.46 can't find library I had been happily plodding along on oracletool 2.0 for that last 2 years (a perl cgi script that interrogates Oracle databases), when I discovered that there was a new version. So I downloaded and installed that and found that it didn't work, that something that had been added, ora_session_modes in DBD::Oracle required version 1.13 or greater of DBD::Oracle (I had 1.12). After spending a day and a half working out how to get DBD::Oracle 1.16, DBI 1.46 and Perl 5.8.5 compiled up for HP-UX 11.11 and Oracle 9.2.0.5, I was ready to give it a try. When I try to invoke oracletool now (either 2.2 or the saved version 2.0), I'm getting the following perl error: Can't load '/opt/perl5_64/lib/site_perl/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0-LP64/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracl e.sl' for module DBD::Oracle: No such file or directory at /opt/perl5_64/lib/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0-LP64/DynaLoader.pm line 230. at oracletool.pl line 24 Compilation failed in require at oracletool.pl line 24.

[Tue Feb 01 16:35:21 2005] [error] [client 148.175.62.147] Premature end of script headers: oracletool.pl Now, I've checked the permissions on /opt/perl5_64/lib/site_perl/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0-LP64/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle .sl and it appears to be globally readable: root[2929] rtsihp7 /opt/hpapache2/logs# su - www [snip HP Copyright info at login] $ file /opt/perl5_64/lib/site_perl/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0-LP64/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle .sl /opt/perl5_64/lib/site_perl/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0-LP64/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle .sl: ELF-64 shared object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64) $ Oracletool also comes with a basic test script that connects to the database and runs "select sysdate from dual" and reports it. This is giving me the same error. Unfortunately I don't know a whole lot about perl or Apache. As another test, I tried to run the example.cgi script mentioned in the above paragraph from the command line, and it's reporting the same message, so I guess that rules out apache. Anyone have ideas as to why this can't load? Thanks Steve Stephen Wales Senior Database Administrator Rio Tinto Services Inc.
