Trying to build perl modules - getting unsatisfied code symbol 'dladdr'

Mark Bridgett — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 07:16:13 GMT

I should first say I am not a programmer - I just want to get a perl module installed! I have a server running 11iv1 (old I know) with the latest perl 5.8.8 (build 822). However, when I try to install a perl module (eg Net-SSH-0.08) I get an error during the "make test" as follows:
munch:/home/mbridget/.cpan/build/Net-SSH-0.08-LZSnsC=> /opt/make/bin/gmake

Any suggestions as to how I can resolve this?

You need to make sure you have a newer dld patch: PHSS_22535 or newer

Thanks for the suggestion. I have had the patch installed but unfortunately still get the same error message. The patch did not require a reboot, so I presume one is not required.

Right, it shouldn't need a reboot.
I gave you the recommended patch but perhaps you need the most recent, PHSS_35385.
(Since there is a man page for it, it should be in some dld patch.)

dladdr is also in PHSS_33035.

Mark, for all of those *.sl files, make sure you that you have permission to "execute" them. From time to time, I've seen them delivered with no execute access on the files, or even rarer, improper access levels to the directories that house the .sl files.

I am trying this on a different server as I needed a reboot patch and the server I was trying to use ended up being difficult to arrange downtime on. Hopefully the new server will be OK. Thanks for the suggestions.
