Hi

I'm new to this list, but I've looked through the archives before 
posting and I can't find the exact answer to this, only a few ideas.
I'm running Red Hat Linux 7.1, using Perl 5.6.1 and trying to get DBI 
1.20 to work. I've tried  installing two different ways - by downloading 
the tar.gz, running 'perl Makefile.PL', make, make test, make install; 
and also by doing "perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBI'". In each case the 
installation seemed to go fine with no errors. However, a script using 
DBI doesn't work, although I've seen the same script work fine on 
another machine.

The script (called load_bugs, which is supposed to use DBI to populate a 
MySQL database) falls over when it gets to "use DBI". Here is the full 
output:

Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .)

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux/DBI.pm line 189.
Compilation failed in require at ./load_bugs line 9.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./load_bugs line 9.

If you look around line 189 of DBI.pm, here's what it says:

# If you get an error here like "Can't find loadable object ..."
# then you haven't installed the DBI correctly. Read the README
# then install it again.
bootstrap DBI;

}

Needless to say I have read the README plenty of times now!
If I knew which loadeble object it was looking for, I might get 
somewhere...
I'm happy to supply any more info you need to help me.

Thanks in advance!

In your script's shebang line, are you perhaps using:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
?

Try a "which perl" from the command line and see if it varies from your
shebang line.  Perhaps /usr/bin/perl?

Is DBI.pm in one of those @INC directories above? In the same directory,
is there an auto/DBI sub-directory, and do you have permission to read all
the files in that directory (and maybe execute permission on the DBI.so
file in there)??

HTH,
Douglas Wilson

This is because the script you are using is run with a different perl
version that was used to install DBI.  Also you might of installed DBI in a
non standard directory, which will not append it to @INC.  See perldoc
perlvar for more info on @INC.

No, it's not that. The shebang says #!/usr/bin/perl, and "which perl" 
returns the same path - although I've actually got it installed at 
/usr/local/bin/perl as well (that was one of the options during the 
installation).

Yes, they all exist with the right permissions. I just tried changing 
the ownership to that of the user trying to run the script, but that 
didn't work, so I changed it right back!

Thanks! I think you must have found the answer, because that's certainly 
true. I was using perl 5.6.0 until yesterday - I'm sorry, I should have 
mentioned that before. DBI was installed while I was still running 
5.6.0, it was actually in the process of trying to fix something else 
that I ended up upgrading to 5.6.1.
Next stupid question: how do I get out of this mess? Is there a simple 
way to uninstall DBI rather than just keep reinstalling over the 
existing version, which I've been doing till now?

You can use the CPAN.pm module to install or update any module.  As far as
fixing this, just install DBI with the correct perl version and then you'll
be able to use without modifying @INC.  Otherwise you will have to modify
@INC in all scripts, which I wouldn't recommend because of some older perl
version incompatibility that might exist.

I'm sorry to keep cluttering up the list with my ignorance, but I can't 
seem to get this working. From a CPAN shell, I've tried "install DBI", 
"recompile DBI" and pretty much anything else I could think of. Whenever 
I run a script using DBI I get the same problem (which is that it 
complains about DBI not being in @INC, although it is, and the real 
error seems to occur at line 189 of DBI.pm where it wants to "bootstrap 
DBI").

If anyone isn't sick of this one yet, I'd still be grateful for any ideas.

You must be running CPAN.pm under a different installation than the one you
are trying to use DBI with.  Understand that @INC is sort of like INCLUDE
for a compiler, if it's not in standard directrories, then you must append
to it.

Then just make sure you have the right files in the right place. Make sure
on an @INC path you have a DBI directory with the following files:
 
DBD.pm
FAQ.pm
Format.pm
ProxyServer.pm
Shell.pm
W32ODBC.pm
 
Then make sure you also installed the DB driver you need. For me, an Oracle
DBD driver, a DBD directory:
 
ADO.pm
ExampleP.pm
Multiplex.pm
NullP.pm
Oracle.pm
Proxy.pm
Sponge.pm
 
And, of course, on your lib dir, the DBI.pm file.
 
Those are the files I find on my PC that look to be the complete DBI
package. I am unsure if I am missing any files.

Yes! I did the same way. The problem is with use DBI module. I think we got
to do something with the installation...

Well, I'm not really a DBI expert, but that's not how you should use DBI.
After you install it via PPM, what you do is something like:

#!C:/perl/bin/perl 

# Perl-installed modules 
use DBI; # Use the DBI and the DBD-Oracle installed modules for Oracle
interface 

my $dbh = DBI->connect($DATA_SOURCE, $USERNAME, $PASSW) or print "Cannot
connect to $DATA_SOURCE. Error is:\n $DBI::errstr<BR>", die;

print "Connected to the database!\n<BR>\n";

Hi, 
       I have installed the DBI module by downloading it from 
http://search.cpan.org/src/TIMB/DBI-1.37
<http://search.cpan.org/src/TIMB/DBI-1.37> . 

After installation,If I ran  "perl -c DBI.pm",  
I am getting an error as => 

Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: 
/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503/aix 
/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.00503 /usr/opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.005/aix 
/usr/opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.005 .) at DBI.pm line 255 
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at DBI.pm line 255 

Could you please assist me. 

Thanks, 
Sundar.
