Earlier (11/15,11/16) we ascertained that I am unable to insert into a CLOB
field from my Perl script due to some outdated Perl modules. I have been on a
quest since then to locate and install the 1.20 version of DBI and the 1.12
version of DBD::Oracle. While I have successfully located them (or, more
accurately, the tar version which is not for windows), I am running
into additional, formidable problems.
I've tried three different ways; ppm, nmake, and perl -MCPAN.
PPM reports it cannot locate a PPD file for package Bundle::DBI. So it doesn't
seem to have this package for windows. I also tried just "DBI" and "DBI-1.20".
nmake seems to require a file called cl.exe, which I don't have:
C:\Perl\modules\all\DBI-1.19>nmake
Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 1.50

cl.exe -c -Od -MD -DNDEBUG -GX -DWIN32 -D_CONSOLE -DNO_STRICT
-DHAVE_DES_FCRYPT -DPERL_CAP
I -Od -MD -DNDEBUG -GX -DVERSION=\"1.19\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.19\"
-IC:\Perl\lib\CORE -DDBI_NO_TH
READS Perl.c
'cl.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe' : return code '0x1'
Stop.
perl -MCPAN reports "C:\WINNT\tar.EXE: couldn't change access and modification
times of Storable-1.0.13/t: : Permission denied". This shows up for everything
involving tar.exe.
Anyone out there have any suggestions?
Thanks.
