Hello we are trying to install WebGUI and of course use MySQL with Perl, in order to do this we installed DBD and DBI, but something appears to have gone wrong....

The error message from the index.pl is as follows.... bash-2.03# perl index.pl install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so' for module DBD::mysql: ld.so.1: perl: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: symbol net_buffer_length: referenced symbol not found at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at (eval 16) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 16) line 3.

something indeed - heres a hint you shouldnt ignore.

Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at ../lib/WebGUI/Session.pm line 392

theres another thread running currently that is closely related.

Re: same problem with symbol net_buffer_length not found with 'make test' for DBD::mysq
