Trying to install perl module

Here's the deal:

I'm trying to install perl's DBI Module in my Solaris 11 express ( ALSO TRYING IN SOLARIS 10 )
but I'm getting these errors/warnings when using the respective commands

perl Makefile.PL

PHP Code:


Warning: prerequisite ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.48 not found. We have 6.42.
Warning: prerequisite Test::Simple 0.90 not found. We have 0.72.

    I see you're using perl 5.010000 on i86pc-solaris-64int, okay.
    Remember to actually *read* the README file!
    Use  'make' to build the software (dmake or nmake on Windows).
    Then 'make test' to execute self tests.
    Then 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this working
    directory before unpacking and building any DBD::* drivers

Then, make:

PHP Code:


cc -c   -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_TS_ERRNO -DPERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV -xO3 -xspace -xildoff   -DVERSION=\"1.616\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.616\" -KPIC "-I/usr/perl5/5.10.0/lib/i86pc-solaris-64int/CORE"  -DDBI_NO_THREADS Perl.c

Make sure, /usr/bin is before /usr/gnu/bin in $PATH and that you have installed the sun studio compiler. It seems, you are using the gcc (as /usr/gnu/bin/cc).

Code:

 # pkg install sunstudio12u1
  
$ PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/gnu/bin
$ whence cc
/usr/bin/cc

Thanks for replying Hergp.

I think i successfully installed the DBI module, but now i gotta install DBD:

/usr/perl5/something/perlgcc

PHP Code:


PLEASE NOTE:

For 'make test' to run properly, you must ensure that the 
database user 'andres' can connect to your MySQL server 
and has the proper privileges that these tests require such 
as 'drop table', 'create table', 'drop procedure', 'create procedure'
as well as others. 

mysql> grant all privileges on test.* to 'andres'@'localhost' identified by 's3kr1t';

You can also optionally set the user to run 'make test' with:

perl Makefile.PL --testuser=username

I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:

  cflags        (mysql_config) = -I/usr/sfw/include/mysql -xstrconst -mt
  embedded      (mysql_config) = 
  libs          (mysql_config) = -R/usr/sfw/lib -R/usr/sfw/lib/mysql -L/usr/sfw/lib -L/usr/sfw/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm
  mysql_config  (guessed     ) = mysql_config
  nocatchstderr (default     ) = 0
  nofoundrows   (default     ) = 0
  ssl           (guessed     ) = 0
  testdb        (default     ) = test
  testhost      (default     ) = 
  testpassword  (default     ) = 
  testsocket    (default     ) = 
  testuser      (guessed     ) = andres

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

Multiple copies of Driver.xst found in: /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/i86pc-solaris-64int/auto/DBI/ /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4/i86pc-solaris-64int/auto/DBI/ at Makefile.PL line 907

then, calling a gmake:

Any suggestions?

I think, this is the same problem as before. You are using gcc instead of cc and the makefile uses '-xstrconst', which is cc-specific.

Either remove '-xstrconst' from the makefile or - better - use the sunstudio compiler.
