Hi everyone, After a little tracking down I realized what's happening, but I can't quite pick out why. There are two versions of DBD::File in my tree one at: /db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/lib/site_perl/5.8.7/aix/DBD (v0.33) and one at /db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/lib/site_perl/5.8.7/DBD (v0.34)
This was a fresh build of perl, and all modules were updated/installed via the CPAN module so I wasn't expecting to get myself confused with multiple versions like so. Any ideas where I may have gone wrong? Or, for that matter, am I safe just deleting File.pm from the aix subdirectory? Many thanks, Paul Quoting "Reidy, Ron" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Paul, > > Did you check the timestamp of the new .pm and/or .so?
