in reply to Oracle DBD problems with mod_perl

Try setting $ENV{ORACLE_HOME} in your startup.pl. I tried every iteration of this, and setting it in the actual handler/script didn't work. I ended up having to set it before use'ing DBI, even.

I shouldn't have to say this, but any code, unless otherwise stated, is untested

      THANK YOU BOTH! This worked.

      Here's the crazy part. I had this same idea yesterday, tried it, and no luck. I can't figure out what I did differently yesterday when it didn't work, because I even removed the environment from being set in my script so that when the error dumped the environment, I proved to myself that it was set by the startup.pl. Must have been a typo or something in the environment yesterday.

      Anyhow, this is great. Thanks again!

        but still no luck. Using LD_PRELOAD before starting Apache2 doesn't seem to have any impact. Any ideas?
