perl DBI installation problems

[hpjinyq]

Dear all,

I am trying to install DBI(1.48) on a server.
I am following these steps.

1,#perl Makefile.pl(successful)
2. #make (error - see below)

I received the following error.
# make
gcc -c -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L -D_REENTRANT -D_HPUX_SOURCE -mlp64 -fPIC -fno-strict-aliasing -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O -DVERSION=\"1.48\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.48\" -fPIC "-I/opt/perl_64/lib/5.8.0/IA64.ARCHREV_0-thread-multi-LP64/CORE" -Wall -Wno-comment Perl.c
error 2005: invalid option '-x'
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.

Hi,

Try to use the gmake utility.

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

perl-5.8.0 is VERY old.

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Languages/perl-5.8.7/

5.8.8 is due in a month (or two)

gcc-4.0.0 is not being nice to me in 64bit mode on HP-UX, so I went back (or forward) to gcc-3.4.4

I see no -x option in the command line preceding the error.

What I *expect* is that, since your perl is that old, perl was built with different gcc options (due to an older gcc) than you are now having support for in gcc-4.0.0

In your case, I'd suggest to build perl-5.8.7 from scratch (source) and then install the modules you need.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn [ who suspects more followup, since most people install DBI to be used with DBD::Oracle and since Oracle itself is not built with gcc, expect dragons there ]

Try to use perl that comes with 11.23 or install a new version from http://h20293.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=PERL

Thanks a million to all,

I have installed NEW perl from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Languages/perl-5.8.7/

# perl -v

This is perl, v5.8.7 built for IA64.ARCHREV_0

Thanks again,

[Arunvijai_4 · Accepted solution]

Just a thought, Did you do # make clean
# make distclean and # perl Makefile;# make after installing new perl ?

-Arun

[hpjinyq]

Thanks Arun,

Yes,
I have run #make realclean before i run perl Makefile.PL.

-Justin Jin

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

Can you attach the Makefile please

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
