  • 1.  Perl version on AIX 7.2

    Posted Thu December 14, 2023 05:19 AM

    Hi All,

    We have been facing certain issues w.r.t perl 5.28.1 checktree.pm module missing error on AIX 7.2 TL5.

    I tried to install perl 5.34.1 using the ppc.rpm packge ( dnf install perl  method ).

    It was completed successfully, however on the server its still showing the pervious version i.e. 5.28.1.

    Can suggestions how to overcome this issue.

    Thanks

    There is a perl.rte fileset which comes with AIX Base OS itself. That perl is /usr/bin/perl. Toolbox perl is /opt/freeware/bin/perl. So based on your PATH, the relevant perl is invoked. Please check that.
