But then while installing DBI it dies with the following error <code>/usr/local/bin/perl -p -e "s/~DRIVER~/Perl/g" ./Driver.xst > Perl.xsi /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/ExtUtils/typemap -typemap typemap Perl.xs > Perl.xsc && mv Perl.xsc Perl.c cc -c -DAPPLLIB_EXP="/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/BSDPAN" -DHAS_FPSETMASK -DHAS_FLOATINGPOINT_H -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -O -pipe -DVERSION=\"1.50\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.50\" -DPIC -fPIC "-I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/mach/CORE" -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast -Wno-comment -Wno-sign-compare -Wno-cast-qual -DDBI_NO_THREADS Perl.c cc: permission denied *** Error code 126 Stop in /usr/home/sites/www.whereever.com/whereever/.cpan/build/DBI-1.50. /usr/bin/make -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible </code> I'll continue to search perlmonks, but i think this might just be a permission setting that is obvious to real unix hackers ;) </p> <div class="pmsig"><div class="pmsig-263384"> <br />___________<br /> Eric Hodges </div></div> 361886 361887
