John,
thanks for your comments. I have successfully installed DBD::Oracle on a
Windows 7 (64-bit) box, but used both 32-bit Strawberry Perl and Oracle instant
client. That may be the way for me to go, unless I can make the 64-bit stuff
work together.
I do have the Oracle instant clent SDK folder in the
E:/app/Dna_Admin/product/11.2.0/client_1/instantclient_11_2 directory with all
the goodies, which apparently doesn't help much. Yes, the flags you mention
(ORA_OCI_102 and ORA_OCI_112) are set in the Makefile. Where should I look for
those command files that you refer to?
Thanks again,
Alexander Saip
