What were you trying to do?
I'm trying to use the DB_File mosule that is supposed to come
standard with perl5.
What's wrong:
Apparently the corresponding .so file isn't compiled for Sun. It
doesn't appear to be there for SGI either.
What should have happened:
When I used "use DB_File;" in my perl script, it should have been
able to load the correct files. Istead I get this:
Can't find loadable object for module DB_File in @INC (/afs/athena/contrib/perl5/arch/sun4m_54/lib/perl5.003 /afs/athena/contrib/perl5/arch/share/perl5.003 /afs/athena/contrib/perl5/arch/sun4m_54/lib/site_perl /afs/athena/contrib/perl5/arch/share/site_perl .) at /afs/athena/contrib/perl5/arch/share/perl5.003/DB_File.pm line 249
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at recordlog.pl line 4.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
The man page and http://www-cgi.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/perl-man have
all the necessary info.
