sstack has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

When I try to run a module with "use Sys::Syslog", I get the following error at run-time:

ISA not supported at /path/isa_defs.ph line 83

I've rerun "h2ph" to no avail.

Environment is Solaris 5.7

    what version of perl are you using? If its less than 5.005 03 you might want to upgrade.

    look into _h2ph_pre.ph and see if the right architecture is being defined (IE sparc/i386/ppc)
      Thank you "cleen". I forgot to mention I was running 5.004. I may have inadvertantly mixed HP-UX and Solaris objects in my build area while building a new module. (Your comment "see if the right architecture is being defined" tipped me off).

      So I took the opportunity to build 5.6.0 in a fresh build area and Sys::Syslog works fine.

      Many thanks again for your help.
