How can I get past this?

[Todd McDaniel_1]

do you see a link as follows?

# ll /usr/lib/libnm.sl
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 16 Aug 28 2000 /usr/lib/libnm.sl -> /usr/lib/libnm.1

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

Todd, you're refering to the 32bit version, whereas the perl used is obviously the 64bit version

check in /usr/lib/pa20_64

# chatr ./perl

will give you the list of libs it wants
check $SHLIB_PATH

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

OK missing libnm.sl in the lib dir for 64 bit... can I simply link to 32 bit? Or how can I get this lib?

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

No. 32bit and 64bit do not mix on HP-UX. No workarounds. No solutions.
You willhave to find yourself a 64bit libnm

[Tonya Underwood]

Do all 5.8.x require this lib? Or should I try another... I have no idea how to install libs.

[H.Merijn Brand (procura · Accepted solution]

If I recall correctly, every program that uses dynamic loading is in need of this library. This includes Perl and Oracle.

In your case I suggest that you revert to 32bit environment, as your original problem stated. I've posted the links in the other thread.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

[ranganath ramachandra]

libnm is not related to dynamic loading etc (perhaps procura got misled by 'nm' ?), that would be libdld/libdl.

libnm.sl seems to be something to do with OV or networking api. google found libnm.sl in PHSS_30609.

[Tonya Underwood]

Merijn... been so busy for awhile... I've reverted to 32bit and it is working well... except...

Going into directory where perl is located... issue command perl -V... @INC not set correctly... how can I change the directories in this? You can see I do have Config.pm below... when I cd to directory where it is located it will obviously check that directory....

I need to be able to change as I have two instances of perl installed... different versions.

/opt/perl/bin # ./perl -I../lib -V

1. perl knows where to _expect_ it's modules, and since I built it to reside in /opt/perl, having /opt/perl/bin in your $PATH should suffice

2. In all cases where modules are not installed in the default path (see the end of your -V output), perl is able to locate those through $PERL5LIB

The fact that perl cannot find Config.pm is weird. Lemme check ...

a5:/opt/perl 102 > find . -name Config.pm
./lib/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0/Config.pm
./lib/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0/Encode/Config.pm
./lib/5.8.5/Net/Config.pm
./lib/site_perl/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0/Tk/Config.pm
a5:/opt/perl 103 >

Yep, it's there. The first one.

a5:/opt/perl 105 >

Soooo, it obviously cannot find /opt/perl, because you installed it in /var/adm/crash/perl

# cd /opt
# ln -s /var/adm/crash/perl perl

would `solve' everything for you. Otherwise you will have to set $PERL5LIB to something long like

/var/adm/crash/perl/lib/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0:/var/adm/crash/perl/lib/5.8.5:/var/adm/crash/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.5/PA-RISC2.0:/var/adm/crash/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.5:/var/adm/crash/perl/lib/site_perl .
