Ilya has DBI 1.20 & DBD-Oracle 1.12 available, >From Earlier Posts,
I made the DBI 1.20 available for windows PPM utility. This is how you must install. You must first set your repository to www.xmlproj.com/PPM by doing... ppm set repository XMLPROJ http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM Then you can install using ppm install DBI-1_20 Let me know if everything works.
