Dear Jin Chiu, >I have encountered a problem when I tried to install a DBI perl >extension of binary. The platform is a Linux EL 3 ES >2.4.21-27.0.4.ELsmp. I am using ActivePerl 5.8.6.811.

your out put shows up some make real clean instead of make test which U have mentioned in the problem description. Make real clean will clean all files created by the make file ie all obj files and stuff. So ... dont do the make clean or make test, and instead paste the following line on command line with su permission in the extracted dir of DBI module . perl Makefile.PL ; make ; make test ; make install It will work.
