I have solved this problem for one configuration (Informix) as follows: a) check with legal dept regarding licenses (e.g. Artistic) b) build all required versions of Perl, DBI, DBD on one machine c) build tar files for Perl, DBI, DBD d) work installation of those tar files into the installation process
Steps b) and c) involve using e.g. $ make install DESTDIR=/tmp/local as suggested in the INSTALL file for Perl. You can then construct a tar file from that directory. For each machine someone (or some script) has to untar it into /usr/local. -Will > -----Original Message----- > From: LLC [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday 28 August 2006 15:26 > To: dbi-users@perl.org > Subject: managing updates/versions of DBI on a prod box? > > > Hi List; > > I'm looking for suggestions per managing the same version of > DBI on dev, > QA & Prod environments.
