Fwd: Installing DBD::mysql fails in Solaris

Dear All,

 

 

Could anybody help me to install DBD::mysql in my Solaris box please ?

 

I have:

====================================================

# uname -a

SunOS aaa2 5.9 Generic_112233-07 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R

 

# perl -v

This is perl, v5.6.1 built for sun4-solaris-64int

 

# mysql --v

mysql  Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.17, for sun-solaris2.9 (sparc)

 

# cc -V

cc: Sun C 5.5

 

 

I did:

====================================================

# cd  DBD-mysql-2.9003

# perl Makefile.PL
I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:

  cflags        (mysql_config) = -I/usr/local/mysql/include -Xa -xstrconst -mt -D_FORTEC_ -xarch=v9
  libs          (mysql_config) = -xarch=v9 -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm
  nocatchstderr (default     ) = 0
  nofoundrows   (default     ) = 0
  ssl           (guessed     ) = 0
  testdb        (default     ) = test
  testhost      (default     ) =
  testpassword  (default     ) =
  testuser      (default   &
nbsp; ) =

To change these settings, see 'perl Makefile.PL --help' and
'perldoc INSTALL'.

Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-xarch=v9'

====================================================

 

I don't understand why the loader doesn't like 64b module when (AFAIK) everything was created with 64b version. Couldn't it be due to unknown "-xarch=v9" or unavailable "is_prefix" function ?

 

I tried to install it both myself and with "cpan", I tried also "static" version as adviced in DBD html documentation but the results were the same.. :((

 

Could you help please ?

 

Thank you so much.

 

Regards,

 

Leos.
