Re: compile problem for DBD::Oracle

yelekeri,

Do you have an Oracle client installed and can you tell us what is in the environment variables ORACLE_HOME and LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

Thanks

Martin

Oracle client is installed on the machine 9.2.0, and I am able to access the database using SQLPLUS. Here are my variables for the same : ORACLE_HOME /export/apps/oracli/DSM/9.2.0 LB_LIBRARY_PATH /export/apps/oracli/DSM/9.2.0/lib32 Also I couldn't locate "oracle.mk" anywhere in the oracle install dir. I never expected it because even in the "working" machine, I don't see oracle.mk file.	[reply]

I had the same problem on one of my machines. I still don't know why this one refused to detect the instant client. I got it to work by compiling with "perl Makefile.PL -l". The -l option tells the compiler to try to link to libclntsh directly.	[reply]
