I'm sorry in advance if this is not the correct forum/mechanism to ask this question - I have been googling this for a while, as well as re-reading all of the CPAN man page for DBD-Oracle.
I need to pass a physical file( or the contents of that file), that contains code to create an Oracle stored procedure into DBD-Oracle. So like SQL PLus, where I'd say > @package.spb, I have been trying to do the same in every way imaginable with $DBH->prepare / do. As of right now, this is not working: # load file contents open (FILEDATA, "$sql"); while ($record = <FILEDATA>) { print $record; } close(FILEDATA); # prepare the stored procedure if ($sth = $DBH->prepare( $record )){ print $LOG "prepared: $HoH{$filename}{'full_filename'} \n"; # execute the stored procedure if ($sth->execute()){ print $LOG "it made it: $HoH{$filename}{'full_filename'} \n"; $HoH{$filename}{'build_state'} = 'COMPILED'; } else { # update the hash, since we will not be loading this one print $LOG "couldnt excute: $HoH{$filename}{'full_filename'} \n" ; $HoH{$filename}{'build_state'} = 'FAILED - COULD NOT EXECUTE'; } } else { # update the hash, since we will not be loading this one print $LOG "couldnt prepare: $HoH{$filename}{'full_filename'} \n"; $HoH{$filename}{'build_state'} = 'FAILED - COULD NOT PREPARE'; } # preparing sql When executed, I get: DBD::Oracle::db prepare failed: ORA-24373: invalid length specified for statement (DBD ERROR: OCIStmtPrepare) at C:\Tronweb\TW_AUTOMATED_BUILDS\scripts\release_cvs_to_dev.pl line 261. This file that I'm trying to prepare is small, and I've even set up my Oracle session as: #Open an Oracle session $DBH = DBI->connect( "dbi:Oracle:$sid", $usr, $pwd ) or die "Unable to connect to $sid: $DBI::errstr"; $DBH->{RaiseError} = 1; # Shows the errors if CREATE PROCEDURE fails $DBH->{LongReadLen} = 5242880; $DBH->{LongTruncOk} = 0; Do you have any suggestions for this dilemma?
