Hi Monks, I'm stumped as to why the NDBM_File.pm module is not being found even though i see it in the Oracle perl package version v5.22.0

..oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0/Memoize>ls -ltr NDBM_File.pm -rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle dba 1488 May 12 2016 NDBM_File.pm

..oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0 is in my PERL5LIB dir and when i run perl -V i see the following dirs:

/.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi .../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0 .../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi .../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0 .../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi .../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0

yet i get this error:

Can't locate NDBM_File.pm in @INC (you may need to install the NDBM_File module) (@INC contains: /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0 /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0 /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/site_perl/5.22.0 /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /.../oracle/product/12.2.0.1/perl/lib/5.22.0 .). BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

Perms are ok so it's definitely not that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks
