Hello all,
my website uses a quite old full text search utility called "Perlfect" (http://www.perlfect.com/freescripts/search/ ).
Perlfect requires the Perl module DB_File. DB_File requires the Perl module BerkeleyDB. So I installed using cpan modules DB_File in version 1.838 and BerkeleyDB in version 0.55.
When I now create the index files, I get following file type of the DB-files: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 10, native byte-order)
But with this type the search part of Perlfect does not work. I need the following type: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 8, native byte-order)
My resarch so far pointed me to "libdb.a", which get's linked into DB_File. The current version at my system is version 6.2.
I assume that I need an old version of libdb.a around version 4.8 to get the above "Berkeley DB (Hash, version 8, native byte-order)" DB_Files. But I'm not sure.
Now, I'm kinda lost in space after hours of Googling... Can anybody help me?
Btw, I'm running on Windows 7 at home where I create the Index. The site is hosted on Linux. I use Strawberry Perl for Windows (Strawberry Perl for Windows) which allows to actually build (compile) the cpan Perl modules on Windows.
Thanks
Manfred
