I have tried to install Perl on Solaris2.6 (SPARC) I have downloaded perl-5.005.03.tar.gz from ftp.gnu.org and untarred it under /usr/local/gnuperl directory. The default options were selected during Configure. Configure was successful and in the end it asked the permission to use make. This was granted. The script then entered in a loop and hence was aborted. So make was carried out using /usr/ccs/bin/make . Error occured during make I am root using bourne shell, using /usr/ccs/bin/make and ld from solaris The text of failure is as follows Extracting Makefile (with variable substitutions) /usr/ccs/bin/make depend MAKEDEPEND= sh ./makedepend MAKE=/usr/ccs/bin/make make: Warning: Both `makefile' and `Makefile' exist Current working directory /usr/local/gnuperl/perl-5.005.03 /bin/sh Makefile.SH Extracting Makefile (with variable substitutions) /usr/ccs/bin/make depend MAKEDEPEND= sh ./makedepend MAKE=/usr/ccs/bin/make ld.so.1: sh: fatal: libc.so.1: open failed: Too many open files *** Signal 9 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `depend' Current working directory /usr/local/gnuperl/perl-5.005.03 *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `makefile' Current working directory /usr/local/gnuperl/perl-5.005.03 Searching for .c files...
