Script debugging

[Adam Smith]

Hi,

Platform i386, freeBSD 4.9 O/S

I am running a perl cgi script and am getting an error message to my
http error log files
==> /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/CORE/libperl.so: Undefined symbol
"nl_langinfo"

grep'ing seems to localize the problem in the libperl.so library

grep -in nl_langinfo /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/CORE/libperl.so
Binary file /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/CORE/libperl.so matches

but I am at a bit of a loss as to how best to proceed, just need a
directional push start.

Anyone up to the task?

Actually discovered that this is an Installation Problem apparently.
Merely, launching Perl produces the Undefined symbol condition.
Suggestions sought.

At least on my system (linux), nl_langinfo is defined in libc.so. Have
you upgraded your libc since you installed perl? What do you get if you
run 'ldd /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/CORE/libperl.so'?

I suspect the only solution is to rebuild perl, unless your system's
really badly broken.

Ben, BTW - you may be on to something I did install a Perl API for a
program. That may have caused it
