For this reason, each Berkeley DB environment may be opened only once by a process on HP-UX; that is, calls to <a href="../../api_c/env_open.html">DB_ENV->open</a> will fail if the specified Berkeley DB environment has been opened and not subsequently closed.</p> <hr size=1 noshade> <p><li><b>When compiling with gcc, I see the following error: <blockquote><pre>#error "Large Files (ILP32) not supported in strict ANSI mode."</pre></blockquote></b> <p>We believe this is an error in the HP-UX include files, but we don't really understand it.

We have never found any way to fix this problem as part of the Berkeley DB build process. To work around the problem, rebuild tclsh or Perl, and modify its build process to explicitly link it against the HP-UX pthread library (currently /usr/lib/libpthread.a).</p> <hr size=1 noshade> <p><li><b>When running an executable that has been dynamically linked against the Berkeley DB library, I see the error "Can't find path for shared library" even though I correctly set the SHLIB_PATH environment variable.</b> <p>By default, some versions of HP-UX ignore the dynamic library search path specified by the SHLIB_PATH environment variable. To work around this, specify the "+s" flag to ld when linking, or run the following command on the executable that is not working:</p> <blockquote><pre>chatr +s enable -l /full/path/to/libdb-3.2.sl ...</pre></blockquote> <hr size=1 noshade> <p><li><b>I see errors about "open64" when building Berkeley DB applications.</b> <p>System include files (most commonly fcntl.h) in some releases of AIX, HP-UX and Solaris redefine "open" when large-file support is enabled for applications. This causes problems when compiling applications because "open" is a method in the Berkeley DB APIs. To work around this problem: <ol> <p><li>Avoid including the problematical system include files in source code files which also include Berkeley DB include files and call into the Berkeley DB API. <li>Before building Berkeley DB, modify the generated include file db.h to itself include the problematical system include files. <li>Turn off Berkeley DB large-file support by specifying the <a href="../../ref/build_unix/conf.html#--disable-largefile">--disable-largefile</a> configuration option and rebuilding. </ol></p> </ol> <table width="100%"><tr><td><br></td><td align=right><a href="../build_unix/freebsd.html"><img src="../../images/prev.gif" alt="Prev"></a><a href="../toc.html"><img src="../../images/ref.gif" alt="Ref"></a><a href="../build_unix/irix.html"><img src="../../images/next.gif" alt="Next"></a> </td></tr></table> <p><font size=1>Copyright (c) 1996,2008 Oracle.
