Hi,

I am trying to load db_perlvdb.so module using latest Kamailio branch v5.0.6 with git revision 49bd81ad7856dac9b2efd53597fb1c182de7440b on Debian Wheezy 32bit. The compilation and installation went successful however the module gives following error.

I tried to find module perl.so in modules folder of kamailio installation but there is none. Then i looked through the source code but no success.

After some googling, i found following link which states that perl.so was remained to app_perl.so since v4.x.

I have created a small patch for db_perlvdb.c which corrects this error.

Kindly update Kamailio master and branch trunks.

Thank you.
