Re: DBD::Oracle doesn't work with Oracle 10g (10.1.0.3) under Mac OS X (10.3.8) or how to make it working?

I have started the hard trip with the Oracle instant client and even the above mentioned full version doesn't lead to a solution. Afterwards, I have followed the advice mentioned in README.macosx (included in DBD::Oracle), and installed Perl from scratch. Without progress, unfortunately. Let me describe the affected environment before I start with the dirty facts: I got Instant Client 10.1.0.3 for Mac OS X to work! Before you run make, edit your Makefile, changing line 483 (or thereabouts) from: NMEDIT = nmedit to: NMEDIT = echo Does this same workaround help you?

Even better, does somebody have an idea how to make it working? :-) Best regards, H.

If you don't know them, they're probably on a list you're on. That's definitely a possibility. It bugs me that Apple lumps things together like this because there's another possibility as well. If spam comes with a certificate, what do you suppose might happen? It's a bit of a pain, but I would prefer the keychain, in the default settings, prompted the user before storing any certificates. I'd also like to be able to set it to prompt before storing addresses, as well, but that's just something I can live with. When it stores certificates I don't know anything about, the chain of trust tends to have even less to do with me. Some things simply can't be mechanized. -Ken On Apr 19, 2005, at 11:31 PM, Joseph Alotta wrote: Hi Everyone, I looked at man security, just for kicks and I dumped the keychains. I was suprised to find email addresses for people who I do not know. I am a single user powerbook with dial up 56k access. Is this normal to have email keychain data for people I do not know? I could post those emails, but in case they're legitimate, I don't want them to get spammed. Any suggestions? Joe.

I use it in conjunction with Module::Release so that I don't have to type my PAUSE password every time I upload something to CPAN - it just fetches the password from my keychain. -Ken On Apr 19, 2005, at 5:01 PM, Larry Landrum wrote: I need to authenticate users in a perl CGI and was hoping to use the Keychain but can't find a perl way to do that. Has anybody done that before?
