Re: Can't connect to Sybase Rep server

2006-02-27 Thread michael . peppler
This is a known problem, and has been fixed in either 1.07 or 1.07_01. DBD::Sybase tries to see if chained transactions are supported at startup, and tries to find the @@version of the server. Both of these requests fail against a replication server, but the failure is expected, so should simply b

DUH! Never mind. As someone earlier posted on this thread, you will either need to: 1. Upgrade your Oracle client to a 9.2 or 10.1 or 10.2 version 2. Recompile your DBD::Oracle source with a MS C/C++ compiler (not recommended unless you are truly a pretty savvy Windows C/C++ developer) 3. Dow

You should always include information about your platform, Perl version, DBD::Oracle version and Oracle version, as it almost always helps with the answer. Here are some guesses: You mention OCI.dll, so that's Windows. It's getting as far as loading the libraries, so you have an Oracle client
