I got rid of the line "use strict" and it worked fine on AIX 4.2 with PERL
5.0

Subject:  Re: problem compiling openssl-0.9.2b





:from a fresh sourcetree, start with
:# ./Configure gcc
:but -- first -- try the next command:

here's the output for above, on a freshly unarchived ssl package file
mainserver# ./Configure gcc
: not found
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 9, next 2 tokens "use strict"
Illegal modulus of constant zero in file ./Configure at line 76, next 2
tokens "table="
Illegal expression (MODULO) as lvalue in file ./Configure at line 235, next
2 tokens ");"
Illegal modulus of constant zero in file ./Configure at line 246, next 2
tokens "misc_table ="
Illegal expression (MODULO) as lvalue in file ./Configure at line 249, next
2 tokens ");"
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 251, next 2 tokens "my
@WinTargets"
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 282, next 2 tokens "my $flags"
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 330, next 2 tokens "my $IsWindows"
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 334, next 2 tokens "my $cc"
Execution of ./Configure aborted due to compilation errors.

:> mainserver# perl5 config
:# sh ./config

this is the output from the above command -
mainserver# sh config
Configuring for bsdi
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 9, next 2 tokens "use strict"
Illegal modulus of constant zero in file ./Configure at line 76, next 2
tokens "table="

2 tokens ");"
Illegal modulus of constant zero in file ./Configure at line 246, next 2
tokens "misc_table ="

syntax error in file ./Configure at line 251, next 2 tokens "my

syntax error in file ./Configure at line 282, next 2 tokens "my $flags"
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 330, next 2 tokens "my $IsWindows"
syntax error in file ./Configure at line 334, next 2 tokens "my $cc"
Execution of ./Configure aborted due to compilation errors.

:Then, if all else, start suspecting what $PERL is detected
:by ./Configure.
i've actually gone INSIDE the script and directly written in the perl5
location. and there are still problems.

any reccomendations?

Thankyou for your time,
Norman
