DCE Threads with SQLLink on HPUX 11.00

[Peter Holtermann]

I recently upgraded from HPUX10.20 to 11.00.
I??ve got an Informix DB running which still uses the old (10.20) installation. Seems to be no problem with that.
Now I installed SQLLink on the machine.

This crashes every time i try to connect to it
with:
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: pthread_mutexattr_create (code)

pthread_mutexattr_create is a DCE thread function and replacede by pthread_mutexattr_init in the POSIX thread model. But everybody claims that DCE based applications should run fine on 11.00

Do I need another patch or something??

Peter,

I think that PORTING seems to be the only choice for you. Please take a look at this paper:

Usually the dld.sl is an indicator that the executable is not compiled properly. Make sure you have the DCE threads package for HP 11 installed, i.e., after the HP11 upgrade, you should have gone back and installed DCE off the Core OS cd. (through swinstall)
If you have installed that, then there is a library issue which could point to a bad header, or an incompatible .sl.
Good luck, I hate it when that happens.
