Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Dual DBD::Oracle install on same box Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2003 13:54:30 +1000 From: "Morton-Allen, Matt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-Scanned-By: MIMEDefang 2.21 (www . roaringpenguin . com / mimedefang) Hi Tim, As keeper of the DBD::Oracle CPAN module I was wondering if you could offer a quick word of advice on the possibility of building two DBD::Oracle installs on the same machine. One of our production Solaris machines has both an Oracle 8.1.7 and an Oracle 9.2.0 install on it and we cannot get them to play nice. We can only seem to manage SQL*Net connections to the 8.x's when using 9 libraries and vice versa and the SQL*Net connections are placing a large overhead on each hit. A logical solution to this seems to be to build to a "standard" DBD::Oracle for 8 connections (there's more 8 installs than 9 at the moment) and then build a second one against the 9.2.0 DB and keep it outside the normal tree. So what do you think? I'd be very interested in any comments/suggestions you might have on the wisdom of this idea. Thanks in advance, Matt. =============================== Matt Morton-Allen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Analyst Programmer - Web Applications Charles Sturt University Australia =============================== ----- End forwarded message -----
