in reply to DBD-Oracle for ActiveState Perl 5.8

Three possible solutions:

  1. Jeff Urlwin's ppm repository ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI
  2. Randy Kobe's ppm repository http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/
  3. Just use DBD::ODBC instead

    Alllll Riiiiight!!!

    Thank you, AnonyMonk! - and Jeff Urlwin. I snaffled both DBD-Oracle-1.13-5.8.tar.gz and DBD-ODBC-1.06-5.8.tar.gz just to be sure.

    I checked out Randy Kobe's site too, but he seems to have only the ODBC driver.

    I had considered using ODBC, but all my (known) repositories came up blank for that too.

    I will now ppm repository add Jeff ftp://esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI so's not to forget.

    Once again, instant gratification from Perl Monks. Thanks all.
