Hi Gurus,

I compliled Perl 5.8, DBI 1.39 on HP-UX 11.0 64 bit version. I have the net8 client for Oracle 9i on the same server. I compiled DBD 1.14 on this server. While compiling DBD on the server I found issues with Thread Local Storage(TLS) for some of the libraries. So, I set the variable LD_PRELOAD and did "make test" which worked fine.

After "make install" worked fine, I tried to run some sample program. But I get the same TLS issue here and dld.sl is not able to load Oracle.sl. I then set LD_PRELOAD variable and then the program ran fine. Is it something abnormal? Is everything OK with my installation?

Please advice.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks,
Nilanjan
