My simple script:

#######
use DBI;
use strict;

my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Oracle:host=myhost", 'foo', 'bar') or die "Cannot connect 
to server: $DBI::errstr\n";

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "Hey, I got this far!<p>";
######

When hit via web server (IIS on NT) the following error message is displayed:

install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load 
'D:/Perl/site/lib/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.dll' for module DBD::Oracle: 
load_file:Access is denied at D:/Perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 200.
at (eval 1) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3.
Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at 
d:\currmktg\test.cgi line 20
And when called from the command prompt:
Content-type: text/html
Hey, I got this far!<p>
Also, there was a DNS already set up on the target NT box to connect (via ColdFusion) 
and connection via SQL*Plus is totally possible.
I also had DBD::ODBC installed to see if I connect via that method; it returns:
DBI->connect(LWCWeb) failed: Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error  
5 (Oracle73 Ver 2.5).

At the command prompt, 'net helpmsg 5' returns the following definition:  'Access 
Denied'.  So the error messages seem to be idenitical
for two different methods of connection.

Any suggestion as to the possible problem?  Please, please advise.
