Hi, I hope you can help me,
I am trying to get Xerces Perl working on Solaris 8 and have a problem (see
below).
I recently installed the Xerces Parser, version 1.5.2 from the Apache site.
I used the package pre-built for Solaris (xerces-c1_5_2-SolCC.tar.gz). I
have tested a couple of the samples and they seem to work fine.
I have installed version 5.6.1 of Perl as a Solaris package from
www.sunfreeware.com. This is installed under /usr/local/bin. We have gcc
(2.95.2) and GNU make (3.79.1).
I then try to build the Xerces Perl package (XML-Xerces-1.5.2_0).
1. perl Makefile.PL ... this goes fine
2. make .... looks OK
3. make test ..... FAILS
hoopoe:XML-Xerces-1.5.2_0> make test
make[1]: Entering directory
`/users/home/jules/xml/XML-Xerces-1.5.2_0/DOMParse'
make[1]: Leaving directory

t/Attributes........dubious

4. make install ... OK
If I then try one of the samples, I get this error:
perl DOMCount.pl catalog.xml
