Hi Any Kind Person,
Larry was almost right. Actually, dbi-users@perl.org would have
been a more appropriate mail list.
I am currently getting the following error message and was wondering if
you could help?

But for the past several days now

DBI connect('nameofdb','username',...) failed: ORA-24315: illegal

My guess is that the installation of Oracle on the computer on
which you are running this perl script was upgraded several days
ago (perhaps by the application of a patch), an that, in consequence,
the bits of DBD::Oracle which are implemented on C need re-compiling.
You should ask the person who installed DBD::Oracle to do this
for you.
