Re: I am not able to install Oracle DBD on Windows 2000 / Perl 5.8.X behind a proxy server

Activestate don't distribute DBD::Oracle for 5.8, only 5.6. You'll have to google to find someone who can (perhaps make a request to crazyinsomniac/PodMaster).

Doing a ppm3 search for "oracle" for 5.8 this is what I found. Not sure if any of these modules are useful having not used them: 1. Class-DBI-Oracle 0.51 Extensions to Class::DBI for Oracle 2. Class-DBI-Oracle 0.51 Extensions to Class::DBI for Oracle 3. DBIx-OracleLogin 0.02 takes a string and splits out individual login 4. DBIx-OracleLogin 0.02 takes a string and splits out individual login 5. DDL-Oracle 1.11 a DDL generator for Oracle databases 6. Oracle-Trace 1.06 Perl Module for parsing Oracle Trace files 7. Oracle-Trace 1.06 Perl Module for parsing Oracle Trace files While searching I also came across these, of interest might be Oraperl (???) Oracle Module search Dean Programming these days takes more than a lone avenger with a compiler. - sam	[reply]

Not particularly useful if DBD::Oracle isn't installed and you're trying to use an Oracle database. rdfield	[reply]

And this is unfortunately why we have to stick with 5.6 on all of our Wintel servers. According to ths post you can get the dbi-oracle ppd here	[reply]
