Line 7 is the following​:

line 169 in DynaLoader.pm is

  my $libref = dl_load_file($file, $module->dl_load_flags) or
  croak('Can't load '$file' for module $module​: ",
dl_error(),"\n");

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,

I have been going through all the INSTALL files for the modules I installed
for
querying a mSQL database. The INSTALL file for the latest perl5 says that
dynamic loading is automatically enabled. So I looked at the INSTALL file
for
the msql module and I decided to reinstall it. I noticed two fatal errors
when I first
ran make test for this module. I again observed these error messages when I
ran
it a second time. I assuming that this all make test does is run some
tests.
Anyhow, here are the two fatal errors produced by make test​:

  *** Error code 2
  make​: Fatal error​: Command failed for target "test_dynamic"
  Current working directory /user/admin/Msql_module/Msql-Mysql-
  modules-1.2200/mSQL
  *** Error Code 1
  make​: Fatal error​: Command failed for target "test"

Thanks,

Glenn

Is it possible that the perl interpreter I built is not
enabled for dynamic file loading even though I elected
to accept all defaults as recommended by file INSTALL.

If this is possible, how do I force the installation to build
a perl interpreter that is enabled for dynamic file loading.

The following *.tar.gz files were used in an attempt to build a msql enabled
perl interpreter​:

  Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2200.tar.gz
  Data-ShowTable-3.3.tar.gz
  perl5.tar.gz

Thanks,
