in reply to Class::DBI::Oracle environment variable issue

Are you trying to access environment variables from within a CGI script? Are you using Apache? If "yes" to both of those questions, you need to explicitly pass the environment variables through Apache as described here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/env.html.

    Thanks for your reply ptum. However, no, this is not a CGI I script, and Apache is not involved.
