You might want to follow the tutorial found in the README.win32.txt as you
can compile the latest version of DBD::Oracle it for the exact Oracle client
you are using.
More compilcated I know but it does work.
cheers

Subject: Problem in intsalling DBD-Oracle on Windows 2000
I tried to install DBD-Oracle that i got from following site
http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/5xx-builds-only/
its throwing error "Error: no suitable installation target found for
package ."
Also i tried with link
ppm install http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/DBD-Oracle.ppd
That is the "official location" of the DBI FAQ, but the site appears
offline currently. Maybe that's just me. If not, try this:
ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/DBD-Oracle.ppd
C:\>ppm install http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/DBD-Oracle.ppd
its throwing error :
Error: Failed to download URL http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/DBD-Oracle.ppd:
500 Can't connect to www.xmlproj.com:80 (connect: Unknown error)
C:\>ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/DBD-Oracle.ppd
its throwing error :

http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/DBD-
Oracle.ppd: 500 Can't connect to theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca:80 (connect:

Could you please help me in installing this DBD-Oracle on windows 2000
Thanks,
Mohanesh
