After some time I got Oracle 9i Lite on my Redhat9 (downloaded .iso
images) machine. I can use sqlplus to connect to an off-machine
database and get data. However I cannot find the Pro*C package in the
installer so I can get DBD::Oracle built.
I read the README, README.help, and README.clients. I googled a few
times and looked over the DBI mailing list where I am fairly certain I
don't have Pro*C and as a result I don't have oracle.mk. I fired up
the oracle installer again and cannot seem to find Pro*C in the
packages on Disk1. So do I need to get another dist? Does Oracle want
me to pay for something to get these libraries?
I do have some .mk files:
notebook:~/perl-modules/DBD-Oracle-1.14> find /usr/oracle -name \*.mk
/usr/oracle/network/lib/ins_net_client.mk
/usr/oracle/network/lib/env_network.mk
/usr/oracle/network/lib/ins_cman.mk
/usr/oracle/network/lib/ins_names.mk
/usr/oracle/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk
/usr/oracle/rdbms/lib/env_rdbms.mk
/usr/oracle/precomp/lib/ins_precomp.mk
/usr/oracle/precomp/lib/env_precomp.mk
/usr/oracle/plsql/spnc_makefile.mk
/usr/oracle/sqlplus/lib/env_sqlplus.mk
/usr/oracle/sqlplus/lib/ins_sqlplus.mk
Desperate I tried a hand full of these file with the -m flag but got no
farther than the usual perl ./Makefile.PL
Here are the details:
notebook:~/perl-modules/DBD-Oracle-1.14> perl ./Makefile.PL

Using Oracle in /usr/oracle
WARNING: could not decode oracle version from
/usr/oracle/orainst/inspdver, or /usr/oracle/install/unix.rgs
or from ORACLE_HOME path /usr/oracle.
Oracle version based logic in Makefile.PL may produce erroneous
results.
Found header files in rdbms/demo.
*********************************************************
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.
*********************************************************
Unable to locate an oracle.mk, proc.mk or other suitable *.mk
file in your Oracle installation. (I looked in
/usr/oracle/rdbms/lib/oracle.mk
/usr/oracle/rdbms/demo/oracle.mk /usr/oracle/rdbms/demo/demo_rdbms.mk
/usr/oracle/otrace/demo/atmoci.mk /usr/oracle/precomp/demo/proc/proc.mk
/usr/oracle/precomp/demo/proc/demo_proc.mk /usr/oracle/proc/lib/proc.mk
/usr/oracle/proc16/lib/proc16.mk)
The oracle.mk (or demo_rdbms.mk) file is part of the Oracle
RDBMS product. The proc.mk (or demo_proc.mk) file is part of
the Oracle Pro*C product. You need to build DBD::Oracle on a
system which has one of these Oracle components installed.
(Other *.mk files such as the env_*.mk files will not work.)
In the unlikely event that a suitable *.mk file is installed
somewhere non-standard you can specify where it is using the -m
option:
perl Makefile.PL -m /path/to/your.mk
See README.clients for more information and some alternatives.
