We're running Oracle 9i on Solaris 5.8, connecting from the Server itself (DBD::Oracle linked againt the Oracle 9i libs) and from HP-UX 10.20 workstations (DBD::Oracle linked againt Oracle 7.3.4) also with no Problems (except a strange TWO_TASK error relalted to NLS_LANG conversion when working with LONG/LOBs)
So just go ahead and try to "make" it, if it passes the tests it has good chances of succeeding in production use. +rl Mark Vandenbroeck wrote: > > I am using DBI/DBD (current version) with 9i client libs against 9i and > 8i databases without any problems.
