My System is: System = SCO_SV Release = 3.2v5.0.4 I have got Perl 5.00404 downloaded from sco skunkware 98 (may 98). DBI-0.93 compiled and installed without problems. Now I want to get DBD-Informix-0.58 running. perl Makefile.PL ... runs without problem make ... no problems make test ... results in ALL ERRORS: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl -I./blib/arch -I./blib/lib -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/i386-sco_sv/5.00404 -I/usr/local/lib/perl5 -e 'use Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;' t/*.tt/basic00 ...........install_driver(Informix) failed: Can't load './blib/arch/auto/DBD/Informix/Informix.so' for module DBD::Informix: dynamic linker: /usr/bin/perl: relocation error: symbol not found: getspnam at /usr/local/lib/perl5/i386-s co_sv/5.00404/DynaLoader.pm line 166. What is wrong? 'getspnam' is in libgen.a on SCO ... I am no GURU but can Informix.so ask for this to be loaded??? Who is out there with a solution? Many thanks for help in advance! Bernd Zimmermann
