Subject: Re: DBD::Sybase with FreeTDS on Linux works, but fails when run under Apache
Date: Jun 5 2007 5:35PM
I wonder if there is a way to detect what is and isn't allowed by the
SELinux layer... prior to attempting to load DBD::*. Perhaps check in
the BEGIN {} block and continue if SELinux allows for loading of
untrusted libraries.
In the past, I've just disabled SELinux but it looks like I will need
to read up more on it to see if there is anything Sybase has to do and
what we need to do for using SELinux for Apache.
