The primary error appears to be that the linker (/usr/bin/ld) doesn't like the command line it's getting. Since +vnocompatwarnings isn't an ld option I'm familiar with, I imagine you're not using GNU gcc/ld/etc. So double-check your environment variables used to generate the arguments for ld.

Often, warnings on pointer manipulation are able to be ignored. But if you're on a 64-bit platform, you'll probably want to double-check, especially as you're linking to something in a "lib32" directory....

Well, that's about the best I can do. For this type of problem, you'll need to be more specific, such as:

• Which OS and version are you running?
• Which compiler and version are you running?
• You should provide the command-line for all programs that are complaining. You got the ld command in there, but you missed the cc command line.

Finally, you'll want want to add <c>code tags</c> around your error message text to make it easier for others to read.

Good luck!

You mention you have configured all ENV vars, which ones? ORACLE_HOME and LD_LIBRARY_PATH are usually the ones you need to configure.

Also check to see if you have the PERL5LIB set on your environment. If you do, you may need to unset it, as Oracle products tend to set that var so that the perl used is the one that comes bundled with its distributions. And whilst you say you are using 5.8.8 you may in fact be using an older version.

That looks like your make tool-chain got messed up (i.e. wrong linker (ld) invoked). perl -V should tell you which compiler was used to build perl. Use that one; fix your $PATH environment variable so that it is found first.

If all fails, you could open the Makefile with your editor of choice, delete the offending flag and give it a try.

Gark! You removed the original node content. Please don't do that, as it makes the thread useless to future readers. Updating the node with new content at the end is fine, and replying to replies is good. But removing the content from the original node is not.
