Re: DBD-SQLAnywhere-1.16



Hi Martin,
That is very interesting information. I see all linux but no HPUX or SUN
machines in that list. Using HP UX 11i V2 on this test machine.

I didn't have any problems with the environment variables. As a matter
of fact I've installed the sqlanywhere version 10.
Before you can bring up the server version using "dbsrv10" (don't use
dbeng10 - that is for a personal DB and it won't propagate to another
machine in your network) You have to install the environment variables by
sourcing it either "sa_config.sh" or "sa_config.csh". That will take
care of all the environment variables for you.

Then bring up the server with "dbsrv10 -n demo10
/opt/sqlanywhere10/demo.db -ud". The server is brought up for sanity
testing..

You can run dblocate to check this.
root@wsmisdb2> dblocate
SQL Anywhere Server Enumeration Utility Version 10.0.1.3419
Server Name Address
----------- -------
demo10 wsmisdb2.cscproj.local:2638 this is the one we
just brought up
sqldbserver mars1.cscproj.local:2638 different sql server -
not sybase

You then can get through "perl Makefile.PL" and "make". There is a
notice about some missing debug code in make but no errors generated.

The show stopper is in "make test". In the "t" subdirectory you have to
change every instance at the top of the location of perl if you're not
using their location.
That's minor.

The killer is in trying to connect to the database, It just hangs there.
You can use the "dbisqlc" command line utility to check that the connect
is working and use select statements.

I haven't been able to figure out yet why it hangs at the connect test in
"make test" yet.

How did you get that ""Please set the SQLANYxx environment variable (where
xx is version number)" and most of the tests
were automated ones." message???? Right after running "make test"??? Did
you run "sa_config.sh" or "sa_config.csh" first???

Thanks
Rich

Greeting,

Has anyone been successful installing DBD-SQLAnywhere-1.16 on a HP-UX
machine???

Thank You

According to

http://www.cpantesters.org/show/DBD-SQLAnywhere.html#DBD-SQLAnywhere-1.16

no one has reported a result on HP-UX and in fact all are failures.
However this may just be because it says "Please set the SQLANYxx
environment variable (where xx is version number)" and most of the tests
were automated ones.

Have not tried it myself.

Your posting implies you might be having problems installing - if so
what were they.

Martin
