First let's make sure your kit is complete. Checking...

Would you like to see the instructions? [n]

Locating common programs...

Checking compatibility between /usr/bin/echo and builtin echo (if any)...

Symbolic links are supported.

Checking how to test for symbolic links...

You can test for symbolic links with 'test -h'.

Good\, your tr supports [:lower:] and [:upper:] to convert case.

Using [:upper:] and [:lower:] to convert case.

Which of these apply\, if any? [solaris_2]

You specified no cc but you seem to have the Workshop compiler

(/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc) installed\, using that.

If you want something else\, specify that in the command line\,

e.g. Configure -Dcc=gcc

Operating system name? [solaris]

Operating system version? [2.10]

Build Perl for SOCKS? [n]

Use the PerlIO abstraction layer? [y]

Build a threading Perl? [n]

Build Perl for multiplicity? [n]

Use which C compiler? [/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc]

Checking for GNU cc in disguise and/or its version number...

cc: Warning: -xarch=generic64 is deprecated\, use -m64 to create 64-bit programs

Now\, how can we feed standard input to your C preprocessor...

Directories to use for library searches?

[/usr/lib/sparcv9 /usr/ccs/lib/sparcv9 /opt/SUNWspro/prod/lib/v9 /lib/sparcv9 /usr/local/lib /usr/lib /usr/ccs/lib]

What is the file extension used for shared libraries? [so]

Try to use long doubles if available? [n]

Checking for optional libraries...

What libraries to use? [-lsocket -lnsl -ldb -ldl -lm -lc]

What optimizer/debugger flag should be used? [-O]

Any additional cc flags? [-xarch=generic64 -I/usr/local/include]

Let me guess what the preprocessor flags are...

Any additional ld flags (NOT including libraries)?

[ -xarch=generic64 -L/usr/lib/sparcv9 -L/usr/ccs/lib/sparcv9 -L/opt/SUNWspro/prod/lib/v9 -L/lib/sparcv9 -L/usr/local/lib]

Checking your choice of C compiler and flags for coherency...

I've tried to compile and run the following simple program:

#include \<stdio.h>

int main() { printf("Ok\n"); return(0); }

I used the command:

/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -o try -O -xarch=generic64 -I/usr/local/include -xarch=generic64 -L/usr/lib/sparcv9 -L/usr/ccs/lib/sparcv9 -L/opt/SUNWspro/prod/lib/v9 -L/lib/sparcv9 -L/usr/local/lib try.c -lsocket -lnsl -ldb -ldl -lm -lc

./try

and I got the following output:

cc: Warning: -xarch=generic64 is deprecated\, use -m64 to create 64-bit programs

ld: fatal: library -ldb: not found

ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to try

I can't compile the test program.

You have a BIG problem. Shall I abort Configure [y]

Ok. Stopping Configure.

It's not obvious there's much we can do about this. The -xarch=generic64 is coming from a call to Solaris's getconf. There may be some sort of patch or update to /usr/bin/getconf to update it with what the newer compiler is expecting.

In any case\, that's not the problem here.

I've tried to compile and run the following simple program:

#include \<stdio.h> int main() { printf("Ok\n"); return(0); }

I used the command:
    /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc \-o try \-O \-xarch=generic64
-I/usr/local/include -xarch=generic64 -L/usr/lib/sparcv9 -L/usr/ccs/lib/sparcv9 -L/opt/SUNWspro/prod/lib/v9 -L/lib/sparcv9 -L/usr/local/lib try.c -lsocket -lnsl -ldb -ldl -lm -lc
     \./try
and I got the following output: ld: fatal: library -ldb: not found ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to try

Configure has found a library -ldb somewhere. (Since you ran Configure in silent mode\, I can't see whether or not it's a shared library\, but I'll guess Configure thinks it found a shared library in /usr/local/lib/libdb.so.)

Could you check and find the full path to libdb? Make sure it's a valid library. You can try for your self to compile the test program with the compile command Configure used.

If you don't care about -ldb (which is used to support the Berkeley DB module) then you can simply remove -ldb from the list of libraries. (One way to do that is to run Configure interactively up to that point\, and then respond with '&-d' to get Configure to accept all the defaults for the rest of the program.

Hope this helps\,

Wow! I didn't know that. I'm going to update the wiki!

We never heard back from the original poster\, so we have no reason to believe that Andy D.'s suggestion did not work.

Can we close this ticket?

Thank you very much. Jim Keenan
