As an internal IBM user - assuming that from the email address - getting hold
of the xlC suite should be doable with little or no cost.
If that fails, I fully agree, rebuild perl with gcc and start over.
Kind regards
Derek Jones.

Subject: Re: /bin/sh: cc_r: not found
The problem is definitely that you are missing the compiler, cc_r, that was
used to build Perl.
It is not so clear that it is GCC that's missing. You're on AIX, and the
IBM-provided compilers tend to have names with extensions like _r. And often
names such as xlc_r. These might conceivably be in /usr/vac/bin if you have
the software installed at all.
If you can't find cc_r and can't afford to get it, you may be able to get away
with faking it. However, options such as -qnoansialias are going to cause
problems with most compilers other than the IBM ones. AFAIK, GCC won't support
those options even on AIX.
Frankly, you may be best off rebuilding Perl yourself with a compiler of your
choosing, and then adding DBI and so on.

Hello Team ,
We are facing an issue while trying to install DBI-1.634.
Perl Version we use : v5.8.8 built for aix-thread-multi
Server Version:AIX IMCBLRDMZSR1237 1 6 00C6FD554C00
I downloaded DBI-1.634 . It had 2 dependencies which i installed succesfullly
ExUtils:MakeMaker and Test:Simple .
Now it throws error as
Running Mkbootstrap for DBI ()
chmod 644 "DBI.bs"
cc_r -c -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=\"1.634\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.634\"
"-I/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.8.8/aix-thread-multi/CORE" Perl.c
/bin/sh: cc_r: not found.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 127.
I still searched for some more gcc related rpm and installed on the system .
RPMs i installed are:
libgcc-4.2.0-3
gcc-java-4.2.0-3
gcc-4.2.0-3
gcc-locale-4.2.0-3
gcc-c++-4.2.0-3
libgcj-4.2.0-3
gcc-gij-4.2.0-3
But still i am facing the same issue .
All forums have suggested that this issue is due to missing gcc compiler .
Please do let me know how do i resolve it or steps to install cc_r /gcc
compiler.
Thanks
Abhishek
