I am very new to the Linux/Oracle/Perl world coming from a many many
years of a Windows environment.
I have self learned everything I know about this new environment.
So far I have successfully installed Redhat 9 in an Intel box and have
gotten Oracle 9I running correctly. I can run scripts via sqlplus,
sqlldr etc.
Perl (I think ver. 5.8.0) is running on the box and I can create and
run scripts that do other processes but I have had no success in getting
Perl to connect to the Oracle database to generate some reports. With
my experience using MS-SQL there is no major issues with the actual
queries and processes in the perl scripts just establishing the
connection itself.
From what I have found on the net it looks like I need to install DBI
and DBD but I do not know where to start. I have downloaded
DBD-Oracle-1.14 from CPAN and read the readme. A few of the lines in
the readme say
Build, test and install the DBI module (at least DBI 1.08).
It is very important to TEST it and INSTALL it!
Remember to *read* the DBI README file and this one CAREFULLY!
Where do I find the DBI module and the readme file?
I have read A Guide to Installing Modules from perlmonks.org and feel a
small level of comfort in the install but some kind of instructions for
someone like me who is trying to make the transition from windows would
be a big help. Does something like this exist? If so where?
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
p.s. I hope this is the correct way to post and ask for help.
p.p.s I do NOT want to do any of this via MS-Windows. I won't learn
anything this way.

Ainsi parlait Robert Kopacz : > Where do I find the DBI module and the readme file? As you're using a distribution with a packaging system, you'd far better use the packages it offers rather than manually install anything. Check on your preferred RedHat mirror for available perl packages, i guess you should find the DBI one quite easily. -- Disks are always full. It is futile to try to get more disk space.

Also learn about CPAN. Either 'cpan'=20 or 'perl -MCPAN -e shell' will get you to the CPAN shell. It will ask you to configure it; be = sure to use the suggested UNINST=3D1 in the make parameters if you are installing as root, as this prevents = (in most cases) multiple copies of modules. Then you can=20 install DBD or search for it with=20 /i DBD/ and then install it. There are some instructions that come with the DBD::Oracle and they say = you need Pro*C and SQLNet to compile the driver.=20 Search these archives for more help. Greg Gregory L.
