DBD::Oracle on HPUX11.11 - problems on installation

[Amauri Albuquerque]

Hi people.

I downloaded the DBI 1.40 and DBD::Oracle 1.15 from CPAN, but when trying to install I get the following problem:
-----------------------------------------
In file included from /opt/perl/lib/5.6.1/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi/CORE/perl.h:722,

----------------------------------------

The system is HPUX11.11
Gcc 3.3.1
Perl 5.6.1

Should I reinstall gcc? or compile it?

Please help.

You are using a 11.00 port of both perl and gcc. The explanation is on my site, as where you can also fetch the `correct' versions of both perl-5.8.3 + DBI-1.40 and gcc-3.3.2

Please then use DBD::Oracle-1.15 which should build clean and out-of-the-box on 11i

Hi H. Merijn.

I acessed your page and downloaded some versions os Perl for 11.11/64. But the problem remains when I try to compile it. I read an explanation about updating gcc to solve this problem, but I didn´t try yet. Do you think I need to upgrade gcc?
I will try DBI:1.15 first.

Thanks,

your site is very go

Sorry, I will try DBD:oracle 1.15.

But for this should I upgrade perl and Gcc?

Thanks

You will have to update gcc to fit 11.11 (11i). You need this because on almost any OS, but HP-UX specifically, any XS module (like DBI, and DBD::Oracle) that nees a C compiler need the compiler that matches the compiler perl was built with, because the flags used to build perl with are passed to the compiler when building the module

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

I had the some errors. If you are using GCC compiled for HPUX 11.00 then you are out-of-luck.

Use the HPUX 11i version of GCC. Download it from http://h21007.www2.hp.com/dspp/tech/tech_TechSoftwareDetailPage_IDX/1,1703,547,00.html
