Re: dbd::oracle HELP

How is your perl binary compiled? 32-bit or 64-bit? perl -V output will show that. Are you using the same compiler to compile DBI and DBD::Oracle that was used to compile perl?

Hi thanks for your response. From Perl -V Compile-time options: USE_64_BIT_INT USE_LARGE_FILES so I guess that it is 64 bit ? The DBI and Oracle DBD were pre-installed on this solaris unix machine (I work for a large automotive company ) I'm not sure how they were compiled . cheers Nick	[reply]

I'm not sure USE_64_BIT_INT is the correct way to tell your binary was compiled 64bit as I'm fairly sure you can have 64bit ints (long long) and large files on 32bit builds of Perl. Under Compiler look for ptrsize=N or locate Oracle.so (in your perl tree - which is DBD::Oracle) and run file on it. Can we see the perl you running which generates the error.	[reply]
