OCIEnvNlsCreate error with DBD::Oracle 1.21 and Oracle 10g client in Cygwin

am 22.04.2008 21:59:26 von rocksdunston

Hi
I had posted a few days ago about facing problems installing DBD::Oracle with Oracle 10g client under Cygwin.
Though those were circumvented successfully, when I try to run a simple script that calls DBI->Connect, I get

DBI connect(....) failed: ERROR OCIEnvNlsCreate. Check ORACLE_HOME env var, NLS settings, permissions, etc. at tmp.pl line 12
Error ERROR OCIEnvNlsCreate. Check ORACLE_HOME env var, NLS settings, permissions, etc. at tmp.pl line 12.

ORACLE_HOME C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_2
ORACLE_SID DEVDB
TWO_TASK DEVDB
NLS_LANG WE8ISO8859P15

I saw some earlier threads on this issue which recommended ensuring that the permissions on ORACLE_HOME/bin and ORACLE_HOME/lib are set correctly.
All user-accounts on this machine have "Full Control" for these directories.

Any recommendations anyone?

Thanks

Hello Dunston,

in my test script i set:

$ENV{ORACLE_SID} = "ORCL";
$ENV{ORACLE_HOME} = "/path/to/oracle/home";
$ENV{NLS_LANG} = "AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8DEC";
# or "GERMAN_GERMANY.WE8ISO8859P15";
$ENV{ORA_NLS} = $ENV{ORACLE_HOME} . "/ocommon/nls/admin/data";
$ENV{PATH} = $ENV{ORACLE_HOME} . "/bin:/usr/bin";
$ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH} = $ENV{ORACLE_HOME} . "/lib";

In Oracle10 you should replace NLS_LANG by s'thing like:
$ENV{ORA_NLS10} = '/oracle/product/10.2.0/nls/data';

cu, Christian

Hi
I have updated my system per your instructions and also included these lines as a preamble in my test script.

I have modified the security settings for every folder under ORACLE_HOME to give full read-write permissions to every user-account on this computer.

However I still continue to encounter the same error.

Any input on resolving the above would be helpful!

Thanks
