The Oracle client is installed otherwise how would 1.06 work, unless of 
course 1.12 requires additional parts of the Oracle client.... ?

Well, you don't have the Oracle client installed, which you must in order 

to
compile DBD::Oracle.  You can download it from technet.oracle.com

Hi,

I'm in the process of setting up a new server to replace our production
system.

Production is currently running Compaq Tru64 4.0F, with DBD-Oracle-1.06
without a hitch.
The new server is Compaq Tru64 5.1A. When attempting to install
DBD-Oracle-1.12, I get the following

  # perl Makefile.PL
  Using DBI 1.21 installed in
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/alpha-dec_osf/auto/DBI

   Configuring DBD::Oracle ...

  >>>     Remember to actually *READ* the README file!
          Especially if you have any problems.

  Using Oracle in /lynx_data/u01/app/oracle/product/805
  I can't find the header files I need in your Oracle installation.
  You probably need to install some more Oracle components.
  I'll keep going, but the compile will probably fail.
  See README.clients for more information.

and the subsequent make does indeed fail.

I tried various things without success, then thought I'd go back and try

DBD-Oracle-1.06.
This built succesfully without any problems.

So what is different between Makefile.PL on 1.06 and 1.12 which prevents

it from locating the header files correctly ?

Cheers,

Rob
