Hmmm, I think that would be because ActiveState does not yet have a DBD::Oracle ppm for 5.8 architecture.
I might start one this weekend on xmlproj.com, if someone with Oracle libs can compile and send me the .tar.gz of the blib dir or create the ppm. In the meantime, try something like this... ppm install http://xmlproj.com/PPM/DBD-Oracle.ppd Let me know if that works.

I would be grateful to you for any advice on how to install DBD Oracle. I failed to find anything in the documentation. Andrei Kirilenkov
