Hi,
Just a follow up on this problem, here is the result of a trace level
5 log. Everything looks fine until whe hit the "prepare" statement.
-> prepare for DBD::RDB::db (DBI::db=HASH(0x2e56f4)~0x2e56b8 'SELECT DEALNR,
DEALSEQNR FROM DEAL WHERE CPTYMNEMONIC = ?')
dbih_setup_handle(DBI::st=HASH(0x2e56e8)=>DBI::st=HASH(0x28b048), DBD::RDB::
st, 2e56dc, Null!)
dbih_make_com(DBI::db=HASH(0x2e56b8), DBD::RDB::st, 168)
dbih_setup_attrib(DBI::st=HASH(0x28b048), Err, DBI::db=HASH(0x2e56b8)) SCALA

Subject: DBD::RDB strangeness

Hello,
I have been using DBD::RDB for a while now without any problems. This was on VMS
7.2, with RDB v7.0.3-1.
We have a new machine with VMS 7.2 and RDB v7.0.6, which I want to use this
package on.
I tried just copying all the important files related to the DBD package to the
appropriate directories on that machine. When I now run the exact same perl
script on the new machine, it seems to go to sleep in the
DBD::RDB::st::_prepare() statement and never return. When I look at that
process, its state is LEF (Local Event Flag).
Strangely enough, if I step through this program using the Perl/TK debugger
"ptkdb", and I run to that statement and then do a "step over", it works. Once I
do this once, I can run the program to completion without a problem!
Is there a version issue here which forces me to rebuild DBD::RDB with the newer
version of RDB? Technically the 2 versions of RDB are supposed to be
backwards-compatible, but that may be at an API and not binary level.
