Storable problem - perl versions
Message ID:

Hello!

I have a file created by Storable version 2.15, perl version 5.6.1 
(built for IP27-irix) on an irix system. When I try to read this file on 
my linux pc with Storable version 2.15 (as above), perl version 5.8.7, I 
get the error message "Byte order is not compatible at 
blib/lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into 
blib/lib/auto/Storable/_retrieve.al) line 331, at orthomcl_module.pm 
line 644". Orthomcl is the program trying to read the file. I have read 
the section about 64bit data and old versions of Storable, but in my 
case, the version is newer than 2.02. The only difference is perl 
versions, as far as I can see, but I didn't think that would be a 
problem. Do you have any idea what can cause this? If I could create the 
file on my linux pc, I would avoid the problem, but that is not possible 
because of memory limitations.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards
