From: Boyd Lynn Gerber (801) 250-O795 Work Date: March 25 1999 8:00pm Subject: getting perl module DBD::mysql working on SCO List-Archive: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/972 Message-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII A note on perl modules used with SCO UNIX and mysql. You need to edit the make files and make changes like this. 1. perl Makefile.PL 2. edit Makefiles in the modules directories. For example... After perl Makefile.PL in DBI-1.06 directory edit the Makefiles in DBI-xxx and each subdirectory. OLD: NEW: CC = cc CC = gcc -belf CCCDLFLAGS = -KPIC -W1,-Bexport CCCDLFLAGS = -fpic CCDLFLAGS = -wl,-Bexport CCDLFLAGS = LD = ld LD = gcc -belf -G -fpic LDDLFLAGS = -G -L/usr/local/lib LDDLFLAGS = -L/usr/local/lib LDFLAGS = -belf -L/usr/local/lib LDFLAGS = -L/usr/local/lib LD = ld LD = gcc -belf -G -fpic OLD: CCCFLAGS = -belf -dy -w0 -U M_XENIX -DPERL_SCO5 -I/usr/local/include NEW: CCFLAGS = -U M_XENIX -DPERL_SCO5 -I/usr/local/include 3. make 4. make check or make test 5. make install I could not get Perls dynaloader to load the DBI modules if they were compiled with icc or gcc. Perl worked best compiled with cc. Good Luck, Boyd Gerber gerberb@stripped
