Installation DBD

Hello,

I have an Oracle 9iR2 , ActivePerl 5.8.7.

I downloaded DBI First, and DBD::Oracle 1.16 on the site Active PPM.

I have an error :

There is no oracle client libraries currently available for your
platform (MSWin
32-x86-multi-thread) in
http://ppm.activestate.com/libs/oracle-instant-client at
install_script line 25.
unlink C:\Perl\bin\ora_explain
unlink C:\Perl\bin\ora_explain.bat


I have the InstantClient_10_2 on c:\oracle\Ora92.

I desintalled the package I downloaded DBD::Oracle 1.15.

No Problem :

My Perl Program :

use DBI;



my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Oracle:dev01','sh','sh')
or die "Couldn't connect to database : " . DBI-errstr;



Best Regards

Pascal VIltard.

RE: Installation DBD

Pascal,

If you are using a newer version of AS Perl (greater than 5.6.x), AS
will not have a good working version of DBI or DBD::Oracle. You should
install as follows:

ppm install ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.3/DBI.ppd
ppm install ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.3/DBD-Oracle.ppd

You should be good to go after this.
