First you need the Oracle client libs installed on your PC. You can get that from technet.oracle.com.
Then read perldoc DBI and perldoc DBD::Oracle as well as possibly invest in the book (Programming the Perl DBI). (hint: Don't use oraperl, use DBI:-) Ilya -----Original Message----- From: Adriano Sastre Vieira To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 4/8/02 6:27 AM Subject: Problem with DBD::Oracle and Windows 2000 Hello, I am using Active Perl, web-server OmniHTTPD and Windows 2000. I have to run scripts that communicates with a Oracle database, and the database is located in other machine in localNet, a Solaris. I have a IP and a Port and the name of the database I need, like this: 192.168.20.177:1521:DataBaseName. In my machine, I have installed the DBI and DBD::Oracle modules, typing: ppm install http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/DBI-1_20.ppd ppm install http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/DBD-Oracle-1_12.ppd Now, I'm trying to run the script following: #!perl #Adriano Sastre Vieira, 05 de abril de 2002 #Script perl para conexÒo com banco de dados Oracle. do "cgi-lib.pl" || die "Cannot implement cgi-lib. \n"; &ReadParse; use Oraperl; #Usar m¾dulo Oracle-Perl But the following error occurs: install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load 'C:/Perl/site/lib/auto/DBD/Oracle/Orac le.dll' for module DBD::Oracle: load_file:NÒo foi possÝvel encontrar o m¾dulo es pecificado at C:/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 C:/Perl/site/lib/Oraperl.pm line 58 Compilation failed in require at oracle.cgi line 9.
