[Orca-users] Help: Command failed for target "MD5.o"

[sreenath sarikonda]

Thank you Blair but now I have one more problem.I
installed active state perl and set the path as
follows

/opt/sfw/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

(for gcc)    (for new perl5.8)  (for make)

However I am getting this error

checking for shared library extension... so
checking for the C compiler perl wants to use to build
its modules... ./configure: test: unknown operator
-B/usr/ccs/bin/
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target
`rrdtool-1.0.40/config.status'
Current working directory /test/orca-0.27/packages
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all'

I found that the
following error

its modules... ./configure: test: unknown operator
-B/usr/ccs/bin/

 could be because of how installation program could be
trying to find the compiler. When I do "perl -V" it
gives me the output saying compiler gcc as below.

 Compiler:
    cc='gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/', 

However the extra arguments are also extracted by
installation and passwed to the program and hence
giving out installation errors.

I have installed perl 5.6 which gives (perl -V output)
Compiler:
    cc='gcc', ccflags ='-DUSE_REENTRANT_API 
See the options for cc='gcc' instead of 'gcc
-B/usr/ccs/bin'

hence I was able to install successfully. Once again
thank you very much to Blair and whoever responded.

Sree.
