Hello all, What would I need in order to write a perl script to query an Oracle database?
I have written perl scripts to connect to MySQL and PostgreSQL databases. In those cases, both the databases and the scripts were run on Red Hat Linux v7.1/2. This time, I am trying to write a perl script that connects to an Oracle database. The Oracle database is running on a Windows machine whereas the perl script will be running on a Linux box (RH7.1/2). I have installed DBI v1.34 from source. Now I am ready to compile the DBD-Oracle module. However, the README file suggests that I " ... [i]nstall enough Oracle software to enable DBD::Oracle to build. That usually includes Pro*C and SQL*Net." Do I really need to install Oracle 9i in order to compile DBD::Oracle v1.14? Or am I heading down the wrong path with the wrong module? If I do need Oracle 9i, how can I get just enough to compile the DBD::Oracle module?
