Hi All, I am trying to use the DBI module. I am trying to connect to a remote oracle serverand get info from the database. This is my script: 
    
#!/usr/bin/env perl 
 
use warnings; 
use strict; 
use DBI; 
 
my $dbuser = 'bla'; 
my $pass = 'bla'; 
my $table = 'v$log,v$logfile'; 
my $columns = 'v$logfile.member'; 
my $statment="SELECT v\$logfile.member FROM v\$log, v\$logfile WHERE v
+\$log.group# = v\$logfile.group#;"; 
 
# connect to the database 
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Oracle:host=some_hostname;sid=MCDB", $dbus
+er, $pass) or die "Cant connect to : $DBI::errstr\n"; 
 
# select entries in the database 
my $sth = $dbh->prepare('SELECT v$logfile.member FROM v\$log, v$logfil
+e WHERE v$log.group# = v$logfile.group#;'); 
 
# execute the select statement 
$sth->execute; 
 
my @data = $sth->fetchrow_array(); 
foreach my $x (@data) 
{ 
        print "$x \n"; 
} 
 
 
# end the reading of results 
#$sth->finish; 
# disconnect from the database 
$dbh->disconnect;

When running the script I get the following error:

user@hostname /export/home% ./getRawDevices.pl install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load '/export/home/user/local/lib/perl/gen/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so' for module DBD::Oracle: ld.so.1: perl-static: fatal: libclntsh.so.9.0: open failed: No such file or directory at /export/home/user/perl/lib/5.8.6/sun4-solaris-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 230. at (eval 1) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3. Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at ./getRawDevices.pl line 14 >/p>

Any idea??? What am I doing wrong? Of course I have googled it and found alot of info about local vars that need to be configured, but nothing was helpful.

Thanks!!
