Hello,

I'm really desperate for a solution to this problem so I'll be eternally
grateful to anyone who can help me.

My setup is as follows:

perl 5.6.1, DBD and DBI using Oracle 9i and connecting to a 9i database

I cannot connect as the 'sys' user

My current syntax is as follows:

my $dbh=DBI->connect("DBI:Oracle:$SID", "$UserName", "$Password",
{ora_session_mode => 2}) or die {&DBConnect};
where $Username = sys and $Password = sys_password

I get the following error:

DBI->connect(planet6d) failed: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges (DBD
ERROR:(OCISessionBegin) at DB_ASSIST line 458

I'd be really grateful for any advice or to anybody who can suggest a reason
as to why I cannot connect.

Thanks,

Tony
