[rrd-users] RRDs.pm problem.

[Guilherme Cox]

Hi all,

I am trying to compile a version of rrdtool. I need the RRDs.pm too.

I tryed the lastest version, 1.3.4, and the 1.2.27.

In both versions, when I've tryed to execute the command:
root at saturn:/home/cox# perl -MRRDs -le 'print q(ok!)'
Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i486-linux/auto/RRDs/RRDs.so'
for module RRDs: librrd.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i486-linux/DynaLoader.pm
line 230.
 at -e line 0
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
root at saturn:/home/cox#

The rrdtool is working, because I can use it with ntop (from
ntop.org). However, I need to use the perl module and I can't figure
out what I am doing wrong.

I saw an email that recommends to use the version 1.2.7, however the
error is still happening.

I went to rddtool-version/bindings/perl-shared ahd executed the setps
described in README file:

It seems that it can't find the librrd. I tryed to change Makefile to
force the place where I know it's, but it didn't help, I've got the
same error.

Thanks for any help.
