I have used previously Perl 5.8.8 on Windows 7, and now try to port the application to 5.14.2.
The new Perl version is installed, the PATHes set up correctly. Next I used ppm to get the newest version of DBD::Oracle for this Perl version. According to ppm, this is version 1.52. I installed this version. However, when using the module, perl -we "use DBD::Oracle qw(:ora_types);" an error dialogue pops up, saying that OCI.dll is missing. After clicking OK, I get the error message Can't load 'c:/UserData/rofischx/p/perl_5.14.2/lib/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.dll' for module DBD::Oracle: load_file:The specified module could not be found at c:/UserData/rofischx/p/perl_5.14.2/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 191. It is not clear, why OCI.dll is not found, or where it is supposed to be. However, when I set my PATH and PERL5LIB that it points to the Perl 5.8.8 installation on the same host, I don't see this error.
