When loading DBD::Oracle onto a Solaris 9 E450 with 64bit Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 using cpan I encountered the following error: rm -f blib/arch/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so LD_RUN_PATH="/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0/lib:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0/rdbms/lib" gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/ -G - L/usr/local/lib Oracle.o dbdimp.o oci7.o oci8.o -L/opt/SUNWcluster/lib -R/opt/SUNWcluster/lib -o build -L/opt/ oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0 /rdbms/lib/ -L/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0/lib/ -lclntsh -lnbeq9 -lnhost9 -lnus9 -lnld ap9 -lldapclnt9 -lnsslb9 -lnnis9 -lnoname9 -lntcp9 -lntcps9 -lnsslb9 -lntcp9 -lntns9 -lnsl -lsocket -lgen -ldl -R /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0/lib -laio -lposix4 -lkstat -lm -lthread -o blib/arch/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so ld: warning: option -o appears more than once, first setting taken ld: fatal: file /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0 /lib//libclntsh.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to build It is a 64 bit verses 32 bit problem and the DBD has built successfully on our 32bit oracle installations. Is the DBD module not compatible with 64bit oracle ?
