I have ActiveState Perl 5.8.3. I used the PPM to install the DBD-Oracle driver to my pc: C:\>ppm install ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/5.8.3/DBI.ppd
But I got the Error: Failed to download URL ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/5.8.3/DBI.ppd: 404 Can't chdir to 5.8.3 So, I went to ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/ and click the 5.8.3, then chose DBI.ppd, but there is no such file "DBI.ppd" there!! Could you check that FTP website for me??? -- I will need both the DBI and DBD-Oracle. Alternatively, I also went to your CPAN site to check the drivers for DBD-Oracle-1.15 <DBD-Oracle-1.15/> and DBI-1.42 <DBI-1.42/> and found they both are the *.tar. Gz files. How do I use the PPM on the command line to install these drivers for AS Perl 5.8.3? -- I need the detailed commands step-by-step. Thanks. George Hsia (925)823-2417
