There are at least two different ways to compile perl itself as 64bit program: -Duse64bitint and -Duse64bitall. Which did you use? (The DBD::Oracle 1.15 on CPAN checks for perl being 'use64bitall' and if that's true, and the Oracle makefile being used has a 'build64' target then it uses that to discover the build rules. I'm hoping that'll be reliable.) > then for > me it was enough to build DBI and DBD without any parameters and it > seems to work fine. Using the DBD::Oracle 1.15 from CPAN?

Could you send me a small simple test case, please? Thanks. Tim.
