thru CGI scripts.

After installing the packages GD and Chart from
h= ttp://www.linux-magazin.de/ausgabe.1997.12/Chart/chart.html> and using the example script space.pl i get the following errors in my httpd = log file:

Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/i586-linux/5.00404/a= uto/IO/IO.so' for module IO: Unable to resolve symbol at /usr/lib/perl5/i586= -linux/5.00404/DynaLoader.pm line 166.

Seems the DynamicLoader is'nt able to load a dynami= c object file. After
some research I came to the conclusion that maybe Perl 5.004.04 wasn't compi= led with the correct options. (see http://theory.uwinnipeg.ca/CPAN/data/mod_= perl/mod_perl_traps.html , section Perl modules )

I downloaded Perl 5.005.02, removed 5.004.04 from my system, installed the n= ew Perl version, and ofcourse the Apache webserver didn't want to start anym= ore. /usr/libexec/apache/libperl.so was still refering to the old Perl versio= n.

Yuck, that means I have to download the Apache source and compile it. Lot of = work for such a stupid problem, and I am not even sure it will fix the probl= em.


So, does anyone know how to fix the 'can't load module' problem without= recompiling god knows what on my Suse 5.3 system?
