Re: Getting DBD-Sybase to work

[Dan Buettner]

I got DBD-Sybase working OK, but did need to set additional 
environment variables - both when compiling and when running the 
script.

Here is the block I have at the beginning of my Perl script that 
seems to work just fine:

BEGIN
{
        $ENV{SYBASE}            = '/Applications/Sybase/System';
        $ENV{SYBASE_OCS}        = 'OCS-12_5';
        $ENV{SYBASE_ASE}        = 'ASE-12_5';
        $ENV{SYBASE_SYSAM}      = 'SYSAM-1_0';
}
ISTR that I set these prior to compiling from the command line and it 
compiled OK.

Good luck!

Dan

Hi everyone,
I just installed Sybase  ASE 12.5.1 on OS X v10.3.2
and am trying to Install the DBD-Sybase-1.02 module.
When I tried to install said module, I got back the following:
"Please set SYBASE in CONFIG, or set the $SYBASE environment 
variable at Makefile.PL line 93, <IN> line 44."

I then tried:
"setenv SYBASE /Applications/Sybase/System/ASE-12_5/"
perl Makefile.PL
and got back the following:
"Can't find the lib or include directories under 
/Applications/Sybase/System/ASE-12_5/! at Makefile.PL line 102, <IN> 
line 44."

I also read the article: "Sybase for Mac OS X" 
(http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/1693)  to see if that could help 
me
but I couldn't even login as Superuser.

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
