Re: apache2 + mod_perl2 + dbd::oracle

[Geoffrey Young]

$ENV{'ORACLE_HOME'} is set correctly right before the connection attempt (it missing would result in an additional warning in the trace).

that's not necessarily true.

Also, the same script run from bash does successfully connect (same users, all envs set in script).

I did an additional installation with apache-1.3.27 & mod_perl-1 and in this combination the test script does work =/

please check out this thread:

try setting ORACLE_HOME in a BEGIN block and see if that solves your problem.
