Hello,
installing DBD::mysql v.4.010 causes "bus error" when used on solaris.
I stumbled upon this error while installing OTRS 2.3.4 which needed
DBD::mysql. Simply pulling DBD::mysql from CPAN gave me version 4.010 which i
was able to install but every call to mysql gave me "bus error"s.
Googling this problem didn't give much hints, but theres another user with a
similar error message which brought me to DBD::mysql:
http://osdir.com/ml/db.mysql.perl/2004-08/msg00035.html
I didn't have compile errors (like in the link above), but actually runtime
errors with perl scripts (specifically otrs) accessing mysql through
DBD::mysql.
This was on a
SunOS HOST 5.10 Generic_137111-02 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5120
using
- mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.28-rc, for sun-solaris2.10 (sparc) using
readline 5.1 (32bit)
- gcc v4.1 for solaris 10
- perl v5.10.0 built for sun4-solaris
Downgrading DBD::mysql to 4.003 solved the problem.
regards
Christoph Hermann
