Gee, that's funny, when you spammed the Java groups you claimed this was
written in Java.
Well, thanks for warning us about a site to avoid! How good can it be, if
the author doesn't even know what language he's writing it in?

Hello Folks,
we recently installed perl on new server. While testing a perl script
for DB connectivity got following error.

Looks to me like the DB2 libraries themselves are hosed for some reason.
Perl's DBD::DB2 module is a Perl interface built on top of those libraries,
so it won't work until they do.
Some things to look for: Did you install the correct version of the DB2
client libraries for your OS? Were there any problems with that install?

You are not checking to see if that print() statement is succeeding.
Also, you've got "\n" wrong.

Which is a question about how to execute d:\my\onedirectory\myscript.pl
by typing `perl myscript.pl` when the current directory is c:\elsewhere.
The answer is to add d:\my\onedirectory to your path and type the

The answer is *not* to associate the .pl filename extension with
perl.exe - the installer will already have done this.

Associating pl with perl.exe does not help the OP achieve success with

which is what he said he wants to do.

Is *not* the same as PurlGurl's advice to associate the .pl filename
extension with the perl interpreter.

It is not a lie to say that associating the .pl filename extension with
the perl interpreter does not enable you to run a perl program by typing
`perl myscript.pl` when myscript.pl is not in the current directory.
Especially when the ActivePerl installer will already have made that
association.

This is the second of my two articles,
BEGIN
---
A more advanced method, treated separately in this article,
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/environment_variables.mspx?mfr=true
Simple matter of adding your perl bin path. An example,
Path=C:\apache\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;...(other paths)
For my system, c:\apache\bin is the location of my perl executable.
This location is all your truly need to run perl core from a command line.
I type in perl at my command line, Windows check paths until perl.exe
is found in my apache\bin directory. For my installation I renamed my
perl5.6.1.exe to simply perl.exe to keep my command line short and simple.
Using this method will allow you to run perl from a command line, in any directory,
and allow you to associate a program editor with a .pl file or .cgi file. Click
on .pl or .cgi file in a directory, a program editor opens the file. Type perl
on a command line, perl core runs.
Your Path syntax for adding a path to Windows must be precise and correct.
For Windows XP use the Microsoft link.
For Windows 95/98/ME same Path syntax but add this your autoexec.bat file
found in your C:\ root directory. You will have to reboot.
You can also set a Path on a temporary basis at a command line.
Research syntax on this well before attempting to do this. Your syntax
must be perfect.
A problem is suggested. Your Active State install should have set a
path for you during installation. You should check this to discover
why your Active State install failed to perform this task.

You are lying, Bubba. Not only did I provide the same information as

quality of information and greater in-depth information than you.
Lying is a very popular activity of the gods of Perl around here.

They use to say something along the lines of: "chances are, when you

I'm confused by this example, it seems that it would run the command
twice, discarding all the output the first time, and saving all the
output the second time. Definitely that's not what I'm looking for.
My main challenge was that I wanted to see that output in realtime,
but the command writes unbuffered output to STDOUT, and is prone to
hanging.

The question is: how definite is the threshold? While I'll agree that
my ironical request was *more* OT than you allegedly serious one, how
can we quantify their respective OTness? What I'm trying to suggest
you is that what you had in mind, that is, in your own words, that
"people here are developing perl cgi scripts for themselves and others
as well" may be a fallacious assumption in the first place, and not in
a terribly different way wrt the one that people here have a great
expertise in secort services, so you should perhaps meditate about it.
Try to understand: for us who work either for fun or for money with
Perl everyday, doing most disparate things with it, the common
identification of it with "web thingies" is plainly annoying, but I
suppose we can live with it. Anything that tends to support it, ends
up being actually hateful. So some people will feel like *fighting*
it.

I can live with it, but I'd just as soon not encourage it. The problem in
my opinion is that by closely identifying Perl with "web thingies", one
also closely identifies programmers who happen to have some experience
with Perl with "web thingies".
I can get Real Work done in three or four different languages, and fake my
way through a dozen or more. I hopped on the web bandwagon in the mid-90s
because that's where the money was, and because of that I find myself being
stereotyped as a "Perl web programmer."
I'm doing what I can to try to break the mold, promoting Perl as a full-
blown GUI development tool with CamelBones. But, I'm just a programmer.
I'm not much of an evangelist, and the problem of stereotypes doesn't lend
itself very well to being solved with code. :-(

That is odd. I see no mention of Ada. Perl has quite a few things that
appear to be borrowed from Ada (as does Oracle's stored procedure
language PL/SQL):
- "package"
- "elsif"
- originally, the package name separator: the apostrophe -- now the
double colon, but the apostrophe still works: Foo::Bar is the same as
Foo'Bar
- underscores as a soft marker in numbers: 10_000 (= 10000)
