Hi,

Yesterday a wrote in the forum a message , there is a strange bug with the
linker I didn't find connection with 64 bit or 32 bit version, all my
version were 32 bit. Anyway I find a very simple solution: download perl 
Binary for solaris from active state site (Active Perl) install it with
pkgadd -d , link it to /usr/local/bin and use ppm to install a binary
version of DBD::mysql, it's all. Now each module you want to install you
download binary from ActiveState through ppm program. They don't have every
module compiled for solaris but there are the most used. I hope someone will
be able to find exactly what is wrong with DBD:mysql in perl for solaris, I
lost a lot of time with this trouble.

Hi Mohammad,

This could be caused by trying to use a 64bit mysql implementation and a

32bit perl setup. I had similar problems until I re-installed mysql as 
32bit and then everything worked fine *Solaris 8 and 9).
