Re: commit doesn't work with dbi::proxyserver
You will need to stop and re-start the proxyserver daemon after upgrading, I
just got caught out by that.
Can you produce a simple script which shows the DBI::ProxyServer error
message?

Upgrading does not solve the problem.
Im now using
DBI version : 1.28
DBI::ProxyServer version : 0.2005
on both the machine that holds the db (and the proxyserver) and the
machine
that runs the script
the error message:

Or perhaps you need to upgrade.

hi,
i'm trying to commit some changes with $dbh-commit(); while using
dbi::proxyserver but get the following error message
DBI::ProxyServer::db=HASH(0x8389228)-func() invalid redirect method
name
'commit' at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/RPC/PlServer.pm line 332.
is it a bug in dbi::proxyserver? what goes wrong??
if i disable transactions ($dbh-{AutoCommit} = 1) and don't use
$dbh-commit() everything works fine.

Re: Query: How to install DBD::Oracle on Irix 6.5?
Thanks for your help Thomas, but I still havn't got DBD::Oracle to work under Irix. I tried compiling Perl with -64. There were so many fails during 'make test' that I didn't try installing it. The installed Perl was compiled with -n32 and a colleague got the Irix N32 Development Toolkit for me. Then I was able to build DBD::Oracle without more than a few warning messages from the C compiler. However, 'make test' fails completely, the output is at the end of this message. I'm told that Oracle 9i has no support for Irix atall, so I think our long-term strategy is going to be moving our applications on to Sun hardware. Also, I have DBD::Proxy running OK, so I do have a short-term fall-back, but I would like to get this working if I can. -- David Adams Computing Services Southampton University - Original Message - From: Thomas A.

You have two options, based on whether you want to build (or have built) Perl -64 or -n32. If you need n32, you'll have to order or download the Irix N32 Development Toolkit, which provides the basic set of client libraries in n32 form, rather than the 64 bit libraries. Alternatively, you can build with the 64-bit libraries if your Perl is already built 64-bit. I found that I needed to set a compiler.defaults file with -n32 and -mips3 specified, in order to match our version of Perl, and use the N32 Toolkit.

Re: [Oracle] DBI: Oracle client libs necessary ??
Say you have an Oracle DB installed and running on Machine A. To use DBI with the database you need the DBD::Oracle module installed on a machine where you also have the Oracle client libraries, etc. installed, either Machine A itself, or another machine, Machine B. If you want to run the Perl code on Machine A or Machine B then there is no problem. Just install DBD::Oracle on them. If you do not have the Oracle client installed on the machine where you want to run your Perl code, Machine C, then you can use the DBD:Proxy module (with supporting modules Net::Daemon, RPC:PlServer and Storable) installed on Machine C, and those modules plus DBD::Oracle installed on Machine A or B. Then, Machine C can run Perl code against the database on Machine A. If you need to go the DBD::Proxy route then you should consult the Cheetah Book Programmming the Perl DBI, and it's a good idea to consult it anyway. -- David Adams Computing Services Southampton University - Original Message - From: Markus Fischer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2001 8:11 AM Subject: [Oracle] DBI: Oracle client libs necessary ??

Re: DBD:Oracle - LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't work...
You could try
BEGIN {
$ENV{ORACLE_HOME}=/quiq/share/OracleClient;
$ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH}=/quiq/share/OracleClient/lib;
}
in your script.

Subject: DBD:Oracle - LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't work...
Hi,
I am building perl for distribution on several machines and I am having
difficulties in using DBD:Oracle with that build.
I have installed the DBD:oracle after setting up ORACLE_HOME and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
make test didn't report any errors. Available_drivers returns Oracle
driver as installed.
Driver: Oracle
Data Source is dbi:Oracle:DMART01.world
Data Source is dbi:Oracle:QA01.world
Data Source is dbi:Oracle:QA02.world
Data Source is dbi:Oracle:QUIQ.world
Data Source is dbi:Oracle:TST01.world
Now the question is...
If I declare the LD_LIBRARY_PATH as my shell env variable, I could able
to make connection to the oracle database.
If I declare the LD_LIBRARY_PATH as part of the script, the connection
don't go thru.
#!/netapp01/repository/perl/bin/perl -w
$ENV{ORACLE_HOME}=/quiq/share/OracleClient;
$ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH}=/quiq/share/OracleClient/lib;
Do I have to install DBD for oracle differently.
Am I doing anything wrong? Any ideas?
Thanks.. Raj
