Q: DBD-Informix

Hi all! I can't build DBD-Informix v. 097005. The same thing occurs with DBD-Informix-0.95. Platform is RedHat Linux 6.0, Informix SE 7.24 with ESQL/C, DBI 1.13. The DB server works well. When i start perl Makefile.PL, perl checks system and stop to work. Here is messages: == Configuring Informix Database Driver for Perl Version 0.97005 (2000-02-10) (aka DBD::Informix) You are using DBI version 1.13 and Perl version 5.00503 Remember to actually read the README file!

The DB server works well. This question was also asked, quite properly, on the dbi-users mailing list, and the answer was given there too. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix v0.95 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
