You need to build the DBI module with the same compiler that Perl was built with. Try running the command "perl -V" (capital V) for more information on the compiler that was used. There is alot about this on Google also.

Updated: Changed to indicate capital V for the perl -V command.

Thanks, here is the full error message:

The perl -v is: This is perl, v5.8.0 built for sun4-solaris-thread-multi

Thanks

You're trying to use gcc to compile DBI, are you sure your perl was compiled with gcc? Note that you need to use perl -V, not  perl -v to see what compiler was used to compile perl. For example,

$ perl -V | grep -A1 Compiler
  Compiler:
    cc='cc', ccflags ='-g -pipe -fno-common -DPERL_DARWIN -no-cpp-prec
+omp -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include',
