First I would use the activestate DBD::Oracle that would be your best bet.
It also looks like you are missing one or more of your Oracle client OCI
files. You may have to put a link to it in you enviornment variables.
Have you installed an Oracle client on this box?
There is a detailed instruction on how to install DBD::Oracle in the
README.win32.txt file that is part of the DBD::Oracle tar follow that and
you should have no problems.

Subject: regarding installing dbd-oracle
Hi,
when i am trying to install DBD-Oracle i am getting the following error
please help my os is windows 2000
E:\trans\install_software\DBD-Oracle-1.18>perl makefile.pl
*** Warning: Colons in the current directory path
(E:/trans/install_software/D
-Oracle-1.18) may cause problems
Using DBI 1.38 installed in C:\iw-home\iw-perl\vendor\lib/auto/DBI
Configuring DBD::Oracle for perl 5.008002 on MSWin32 (MSWin32-x86-multi)
Remember to actually *READ* the README file! Especially if you have any

Unable to find required Oracle OCI files for the build. Please
check
that you have your OCI installed in your oracle home

directory and that it has the following files (and probably more):

Please install OCI or send comments back to [email protected]
if you have an OCI directory other than oci.
Alternatively, if you're using ActiveState perl on Windows try
ppm install ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.3/DBI.ppd
ppm install
ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/5.8.3/DBD-Oracle.ppd
at makefile.pl line 258.
