The problem that I encountered was trying to find the appropriate Oracle DBI Driver for Perl on Windows.

Having DBI without the necessary drivers doesn't do one much good.

    I think I know where you're coming from. I remember being frustrated early on when I thought having DBI meant I could screw with SQLite out of the box.

    I would suggest this is part of the learning curve. An intermediate perl hacker is aware of DBD namespace (DBI drivers, amongst other things).
