I know this is not the answer to the question you asked, but if you *can* use DBI/DBD:Oracle, here is some sample code which may help.

Note: The TNS name of the database may not be the same as the DSN name (actually, when you configured the DSN entry, you placed the TNS name in the server area.)

use strict; use DBI; #-- Define local constants use constant TRUE => 1; use constant FALSE => 0; use constant ORAUSER => 'scott'; use constant ORAPASS => 'tiger'; use constant ORATNS => 'clamon'; #-- Define local variables my $gDBHandle; my $gSQLCmd; my $gSQLHandle; my @gFields; #-- Connect to the database $gDBHandle = DBI->connect ( 'dbi:Oracle:' . ORATNS, ORAUSER, ORAPASS, { AutoCommit => FALSE, PrintError => FALSE, RaiseError => FALSE, } ) || die 'Could not connect to Oracle ['.$DBI::errstr.' - '.$DBI::er +r.']'; #-- Get the data $gSQLCmd = 'SELECT * FROM emp WHERE empno = ?'; $gSQLHandle = $gDBHandle->prepare ( $gSQLCmd ) || die 'Error with SQL statement ['.$DBI::errstr.' - '.$DBI::err.' +]'; $gSQLHandle->execute(7900) || die 'Error with SQL statement ['.$DBI::e +rrstr.' - '.$DBI::err.']'; while (@gFields = $gSQLHandle->fetchrow_array) { print 'Row: ',$gFields[0],"\t",$gFields[1],"\t",$gFields[2],"\n"; } #-- Close the database connection $gDBHandle->disconnect(); #-- Exit exit; #-- End of sample

I hope this helps...
