I can't reproduce it. Be sure to check whether you got a configure.log and if there were any error messages in it. Also, since the error you got seemed to be related to sockets, see if you have the folllowing in your config.h: $ sea config.h socket #define VMS_DO_SOCKETS #define DECCRTL_SOCKETS By the way, since you are building from source, is there any particular reason you are using 5.8.6 rather than 5.8.8, which is current? >Thanks and Regards >Ananth > >-----Original Message----- >From: Craig Berry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Wednesday, September 27, 2006 11:14 PM >To: Prabhu, Anantha (STSD) >Subject: RE: Need help for building perl on OVMS8.2-1 itanium system.. > > >Did you reconfigure after renaming the directory? > >On Wednesday, September 27, 2006, at 07:34AM, Prabhu, Anantha (STSD) ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >>Hi, >> >>I have a ODS-5 disk, and I have done renaming the perl directory as >>suggested in the README.vms.
