Here we go again...
I re-installed Perl onto the machine. It works. that's good.
I use the PPM and install DBD-Oracle8 (1.06). It installs. Good.
Run a lil' test script to connect to database and extract, (which works on my pc).. and i get an error that it doesn't recognize the 'DBI' (from my USE DBI on line 3). ok...
I go back to PPM annd upgrade to DBI (1.14).. try again, same error. so now i go and see about downloading from cpan again and i get this error:
Perl 5.004 required--this is only version 5.00307, stopped at makefile.pl line 10. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at makefile.pl line 12.
I think cause it's a friday here and the day's ending.. and I'm kinda burnt out from the week that i could be missing a small thing and an extra pair of eyes would help me out.. being that I'm the only 'perl' coder here at work.. this is my only resource of help.
thanks in advance again for any help.
