Re^2: DBI AND ORACLE 8

Thanks for the reply. The compile of DBI used the most current client 12c. I want to make it recompile to use the 10g client so I can access my obsolete databases until we can get them upgraded to Oracle 18

If you're asking how to do this, set the `ORACLE_HOME` environment variable to to path of the client you wish to build against, then do a manual build: `perl Makefile.PL gmake gmake test gmake install` [download] Substitute gmake for the appropriate version for your perl distribution. If you care about the tests consider altering the `ORACLE_USERID` to an appropriate username/password@database string.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
