Good afternoon, I am having difficulties with libxml2. I tried to build the Perl module XML-LibXML which is part of our standard runtime environment. However, this time the installation on a RHEL5 box failed, because the build process complained about missing libxml2: <pre> $> perl Makefile.PL LIB=/foo/lib/perl PREFIX=/foo INSTALLDIRS=site enable native perl UTF8 running xml2-config...ok (2.7.6) looking for -lxml2... no looking for -llibxml2... no libxml2 not found </pre> However, the file was available. Starting the build with <pre> perl Makefile.PL LIB=/usr/inform/target/lib/perl PREFIX=/usr/inform/target INSTALLDIRS=site </pre> led to more evidence of the real problem: <pre> [...] Can't load 'blib/arch/auto/Conftest/Conftest.so' for module Conftest: /usr/inform/target/lib/libxml2.so.2: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 230. at test.pl line 2 [...] </pre> After some investigations I found that the problem appears to be that <code>libxml2.so</code> is created with text relocation: <pre> [tess91@INF-AW] lib$ eu-findtextrel libxml2.so.2.7.6 the file containing the function 'get_crc_table' is not compiled with -fpic/-fPIC the file containing the function 'crc32' is not compiled with -fpic/-fPIC the file containing the function 'gzerror' is not compiled with -fpic/-fPIC [...] </pre> Ans since we have SElinux active on the target machine, linking against libxml.2 failed! Is there any possibility to create <code>libxml2</code> properly, or do I have to ask the admin to twist SElinux to allow relocations? I really can't believe I am the olny one having this problem on Linux with SElinux active. What am I missing? Any help apprecitated! Regards, Stefan

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
