Perl modules on Solaris 9 x86

[towershooter]

I am having problem installing PERL modules. I am using WEBMIN and just about every module fails on install. When I try to install the DBD::mysql module for instance I get this:

Installation of DBD::mysql failed. Check the output above and try installing manually.

You can also install the module from CPAN with the command perl -MCPAN -e shell.

 

Any help please?

I am running Solaris 9 on an HP DL140 box

Did you try the CPAN shell?

 

perl -MCPAN -e shell

 

Also, do you have a compiler installed?

 

Usually here

 

/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc

 

try

 

cc -v

 

also if you do have cc installed, is it in your path

 

echo $PATH

 

if you have it installed in the location above and its not in your path, than add the following in your .profile

 

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc

 

If you don't have the compiler than get it:

Can't locate DBI/DBD.pm in @INC

 

You nee to install that module. The other one depends on it. :)
