It would help if you could include os type. But to answer your question
1) no, but it helps when troubleshooting. Usually if sqlplus works, then
you know that the client libraries/software and connnectivity is good.
2) depends on the os of choice.

No, but it typically comes with the files that you DO need (the Oracle
client). Google oracle instantclient
2) What , how and where can I
SQL*Plus is not required to connect from Perl, unless you would like to
run SQL*Plus as a piped process or with expect from within Perl.
You will need to (at a minimum) install an Oracle client on the machine
running the Perl scripts, along with the DBI and DBD::Oracle modules.
