Pro*C compiler problem

Anthony Barkhuizen_1 — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 03:40:52 GMT

I am trying to set up a HP 9000 D320 to replace the application side of a HP 9000 K200. I have loaded and patched HP-UX 11.00 successfully and installed the ANSI C compiler. I have also installed Oracle 8.1.6 client tools and the Pro*C compiler. Client tools work fine and I can connect to the database needed. Then I ported the programs and their make files from the old to the new server. As soon as I run any make file and the Pro*C compiler starts up, I get a Memory Fault (CoreDump). The core dump points out a segmentation error. The old machine is a K200 and has the same amount of memory as the D320 - I compared kernel parameters and all seems to be ok.
Any ideas will be appreciated.

What does "file core" show as aborting?
(You do know that 11.00 isn't supported?)

I know - but this is all that is available to me at this stage.

So Pro*C is aborting. I suppose if you have a debugger you could try getting a stack trace.
Or ask oracle for help?

I loaded Oracle 8.1.5 client tools and Pro*C compiler - this solved the problem.
