Check the DBI docs. There is a way to set the errorlevel or even to set up your own error handler. -Original Message- From: Edward Peschko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 15, 2004 4:50 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: making fatal errors warnings hey all, How do you

Why not just use ActivePerl and download it via PPM? I can understand going through the NMAKE headache on a lesser-known module when there is no pre-compiled Win32 version out there, but why do it when you don't have to? -Original Message- From: PerlDiscuss - Perl Newsgroups and

Invalid character value for cast specification

2004-04-15 Thread Tim Johnson
I keep getting this error when I try to insert rows into my SQL Server 2000 DB. Is there any way to find out which character is causing the problem? I have a feeling I'm doing something stupid, but I'm trying to figure out what, and I think if I knew which character it was I would know.

I think what you want is 'dbi:ODBC:DSNName', where DSNName is the name of the DSN you are using to connect to the database. Works for me... -Original Message- From: McMahon, Chris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 15, 2004 10:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject:

When you upgrade to Perl 5.8.x, you have to reinstall any modules that are not 'pure Perl'. (i.e. any modules that come with files other than the .pm file) Try uninstalling and reinstalling DBD::Oracle. As a matter of fact, I might even suggest that you might want to uninstall Perl altogether

You're missing the part where you show us the code you've used so far. Seriously, though, it's impossible to tell from this email. Obviously we don't want you to expose any confidential or sensitive information, but chances are that it is a problem with your algorithm, and we can probably help.

This is not really an error per se. What it is telling you is that you don't have a compiler installed. What are you trying to compile? Usually there is a pre-compiled Win32 module out there somewhere if it is compatible. -Original Message- From: Dara M Kusic To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
