Especially if you have any problems. Installing on a aix, Ver#5.3 Using Oracle in /app/oracle/client/jdk/jre Can't find sqlplus. Pity, it would have helped. I'm having trouble finding your Oracle version number... trying harder WARNING: I could not determine Oracle client version so I'll just default to version 8.0.0.0. Some features of DBD::Oracle may not work. Oracle version based logic in Makefile.PL may produce erroneous results. You can use "perl Makefile.PL -V X.Y.Z" to specify a your client version. Oracle version 8.0.0.0 (8.0) DBD::Oracle no longer supports Oracle client versions before 9.2 Try a version before 1.25 for 9 and 1.18 for 8! at Makefile.PL line 271. $ sudo make make: There must be an existing description file or specify a target. $ sudo make install make: Cannot find a rule to create target install from dependencies. Stop. Please help me to fix this issue. Regards, Manimegalai V WSI - Unix Support Williams- Sonoma, Inc.
