Hi John.

Thanks a bunch for responding.

Yes we had a new oracle 11 client installed as well.

So with that in mind should I recompile or not ?

When you upgrade your Oracle client libs you should generally rebuild 
DBD::Oracle. Some features in DBD::Oracle depend on the version of 
Oracle client libs you build against. Also, there is nothing I'm aware 
from Oracle that says they cannot change the Oracle client libs so you 
could hit some incompatibility if you don't recompile.

It should just work as long as you did not change your Oracle client.

Most of the time Oracle clients are compatible two forward and two back.
