Everything goes fine until we got this DBD-Informix problem. Because the
perl is a 64bit version (5.10.0), but the esql is a 32bit. We got error
messages as following,
You cannot link a 32 bit library to a 64 bit program (or vice versa).
You will either have to get the 64bit client libraries of informix
(assuming the exist) or compile a 32 bit version of perl.
Peter is spot on. And 64-bit CSDK (ESQL/C) should be available.
The only thing that concerns me is that the Makefile.PL is supposed to
detect a mismatch between 64-bit Perl and 32-bit ESQL/C (or vice versa).
Please could you send me (no need to trouble the list) the output of 'perl
-V', and also the full output from 'perl Makefile.PL'. With luck, that will
allow me to see why you didn't get a sane error message about mixing 32-bit
and 64-bit files.

I have no idea what this '-lifsql' is.
-lifsql means link with the ifsql library. The linker does find two
libraries (/opt/ids/lib/esql/libifsql.so and
/opt/ids/lib/esql/libifsql.a) but both are of the wrong type, so it
tells you that it cannot use them.
