Hi guys, I am working on a basic script to connect from a Windows 2000 Pro machine to a Teradata V2R6 box, but at the moment am unable to even establish a connection. I am using ActiveState Perl 5.8.7 and have compiled and installed the following modules from CPAN: Crypt-Blowfish-2.10 DBD-Teradata-1.20 Math-BigInt-1.77 When I run the test script in the DBD-Teradata directory, it first fails with no output after the first line. I can ping the dbccop1 correctly, and have also tried using the straight IP address with the same results. ------------------------------------------------- H:\Infrastructure\Perl\GIS_Source_Code\DBD-Teradata-1.20>perl test.pl Logging onto dbccop1 as E0xxxx... ------------------------------------------------- After reading the post by Dean Arnold at http://www.mail-archive.com/dbi-users@perl.org/msg25469.html I changed the test script to use the DBI::PurePerl module and ran again but it fails with the following output. I have had a look around and it seems like this is a fairly deep problem to do with the Teradata module. ------------------------------------------------- H:\Infrastructure\Perl\GIS_Source_Code\DBD-Teradata-1.20>perl test.pl Prototype mismatch: sub DBI::constant () vs none at C:/Perl/site/lib/DBI/PurePer l.pm line 482.

I have used the most current modules I can find from CPAN for everything, but if there is a more recent version I can try then that would be good. Thanks Tim Jelliffe
