I have used activestate perl 5.8 with this pc (same os) before and had no problem with DBD-Oracle package.

Any help appreciated.

I have both Oracle 10g and Oracle DevSuite installed but I will install the client as well and see what happens.

Hi Fishmonger, did as you suggested however trying to install DBD-Oracle returned the following.


C:\Perl\PerlScripts>perl -MCPAN -e shell

cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.7602)
ReadLine support enabled

cpan> install DBD-Oracle

Try the command

    i /DBD-Oracle/

to find objects with matching identifiers.

Hi Fishmonger, I'm thinking of changing my handle to Greengrocer :)

did as above things looked good until this....
DBD-Oracle-1.17/Makefile.PL

  CPAN.pm: Going to build P/PY/PYTHIAN/DBD-Oracle-1.17.tar.gz

*** You're using Microsoft Visual C++ compiler or similar but
    the LIB and INCLUDE environment variables are not both set.

    You need to run the VCVARS32.BAT batch file that was supplied
    with the compiler before you can use it.

    A copy of vcvars32.bat can typically be found in the following
    directories under your Visual Studio install directory:
        Visual C++ 6.0:     vc98\bin
        Visual Studio .NET: vc7\bin

    Find it, run it, then retry this.

    If you think this error is not correct then just set the LIB and
    INCLUDE environment variables to some value to disable the check.
Running make test
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
Running make install
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't install

I thought nmake would be doing the compiling, nmake.exe and nmake.err are in c:\perl\bin
