I am attempting to install the latest version of Listserv and include DBMS support for Oracle and, hopefully, MS SQL Server through FreeTDS. I am running into some problems. If anyone can answer any of the below questions or has set up things similarly to my environment, I'd love to hear from you. The environment is: -> MS SQL and Oracle systems would be remote from the Listserv server. -> Listserv 14.5 1.8e on Solaris 9 (Attempting to run Solaris.bin to install listserv into /opt/listserv). -> FreeTDS version 0.64 installed into /opt/freetds -> unixODBC ver. 2.2.12 installed in /opt/unixODBC And the part I am less sure about: -> I installed the Basic Lite Oracle Client package (plus ODBC addition) in to /opt/oracleOCI. I got the files here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/ instantclient/htdocs/sol64soft.html When I attempt to run Solaris.bin, I keep getting these errors: ... > Would you like to run 'make install' right now? > -n [y/n] > y > ld: fatal: library -lclntsh: not found > ld: fatal: library -lodbc: not found > ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to lsv > make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `lsv_prog' > Current working directory /home/src/objss9/listserv-14.5-1.8e > make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `lsv' > Current working directory /home/src/objss9/listserv-14.5-1.8e > make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install' So my questions are: 1. Do I have the right OCI from Oracle (is it an OCI at all)? Right now, I've got this file: /opt/oracleOCI/libsqora.so.10.1 Does someone have a link to the proper files on Oracle's site? 1. a. The "relinking" process for getting DBMS support in listserv is not something I am familiar with; what exactly is happening at this point in the install? Is there an ENV variable that needs set to get the 'make' work? 2. Has anyone gotten FreeTDS (this takes unixODBC, correct?) to work against MS SQL with Listserv? 2. a. Any 'gotchas'? 2. b. What other methods have been successful for connecting MS SQL server and listserv?
