Hi,


I have tried to install DBI and I saw that it tells me that perl is installed thread enabled and that this is not recommended for production environments.

How can I install perl without beeing thread enabled?
I use perl 5.8.4 under Linux Fedora Core 2.

If Fedora offers a non-threaded perl, just intall it the regular way. Otherwise you'll need to download[1] and compile the source, which is a good exercise anyway. Be sure to read /all/ the docs[2][3][4].


If perl is already installed, can I do something to make it not beeing
thread enabled without re-installing all the modules?

If you switch to a non-threaded perl from a threaded perl, you will need to recompile any XS modules.



1. <http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl/>
2. <http://search.cpan.org/src/NWCLARK/perl-5.8.6/README>
3. <http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl/INSTALL>
4. If non-unix see the appropriate README.* Scroll down to the "Documentation" section at <http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl/>
