I have a developer who wants DBD::ORACLE installed on a Solaris server.
There is not an instance of

Oracle installed on this server. He is certain that it can be installed,
but I can't find information supporting

this. It always errors out with wanting "Oracle_home". Is there a way to
install DBD without oracle=20

installed.

Thanks

You would need an Oracle Client installed, otherwise your developer
could use DBD::Proxy. Setting up the Proxy server on the machine with
the Oracle Server.

Re: DBD:Oracle

You do not need an "Oracle Database" installed.

However, you at least need an Oracle client installed on the same box. This
is the Oracle_home that DBD:Oracle wants.
