Re: miniperl hangs during perl compilation

Hi Vani,
I think some more information really could be helpful. Beeing no solaris monk myself, I think some more general things are still required to be known before anyone can make more than a strong guess regarding your issue:

Which hardware platform do you use?
Could the available amount of memory (RAM) become an issue?
When the compile hangs, how does that manifest?
Are there any error messages or warnings in the compile logs? Please show them if so.
Does only the compile hang?

Cheers,
jonix

Here's some more info Which hardware platform do you use? # uname -a SunOS losan048 5.9 Generic_112233-07 sun4us sparc FJSV,GPUS Could the available amount of memory (RAM) become an issue? I don't know how to find out if memory is an issue (atleast for the libraries where i cam not able to create the Makefile even when i give the miniperl command from within that directory). But i was certainly able to create the make file and compile some of the libraries from within their directories. If someone could tell me how to find this out, i can try it. When the compile hangs, how does that manifest? Are there any error messages or warnings in the compile logs? Please show them if so. Does only the compile hang? No error message what-so-ever. It just stays there...here's a snippet make[1]: Leaving directory `/local/src/perl-5.8.7/x2p'<br> Making B (dynamic) [download] But as i said earlier, If i remove the entries from the list of libraries in the dynamic_ext variable in the Makefile. Make completes. But again "make test" and "make install" fails with a lot of errors. Am just adding the last section of the make install cmd output. Read more... (1271 Bytes) The list of libraries that cause an issue in creating the Makefile with miniperl, (i say pass/fail next to each, pass - i can create the make file and do a make from within that directory fail - just hangs no matter from where i try to run the miniperl command) Read more... (180 Bytes) Please let me know if you need some more information. BTW, it's not NFS. It's local. Any suggestion? Thanks, Vani	[reply] [d/l] [select]
