AIX 6.1. and Perl SAPNW::Rfc module

[Former Member]

Dear colleagues,

I tried to set up the PERL sapnwrfc module on an AIX 6.1.0.0 machine using the instructions given in the article http://scn.sap.com/people/community.user/blog/2009/06/19/perl-and-sap-adventures-part-1. I installed the most recent SAP NW RFC SDK from the SAP Service Market Place. After that I downloaded the most recent SAPNW::Rfc module (Version 0.32) and tried to compile it using the following commands:

perl Makefile.PL --source /usr/sap/nwrfcsdk
make

The resulting error message is:

        /usr/bin/cpp -c  -I/usr/sap/nwrfcsdk/include   -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE -qmaxmem=-1 -qnoansialias -DUSE_NATIVE_DLOPEN -DNEED_PTHREAD_INIT -q32 -D_LARGE_FILES -qlonglong -O    -DVERSION=\"0.32\"  -DXS_VERSION=\"0.32\"  "-I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.8.8/aix-thread-multi/CORE"  -DSAPwithUNICODE  -DSAPonUNIX  -D__NO_MATH_INLINES -fPIC  -DSAPwithTHREADS   Connection.c > Connection.ii

Stop.

  Stop.

Did anybody of you manage it to successfully compile the module on an AIX server?

Thanks for your support,

Micha

ps: In order to keep the thread clean, I attached the complete compile steps in the attached text document.

Short update:

I installed the Perl Module YAML, which was missing according to the makefile output, but this did not fix the compilation issue.

Best regards,

Micha
