Well, how are you trying to install it and what errors are you getting? Without that, we cannot tell you what is happening.

re: Problem in installing DBD::ORACLE PACKAGE

First, I would check and ensure the the files that it is complaining are missing are actually not there.

Question, I noticed you are building the module by hand. Is there a reason you aren't using the CPAN interface to install the module? It would be loads easier and save you this headache.

Regards,

Jeff

re: Problem in installing DBD::ORACLE PACKAGE

Ok, it looks like you have abandoned the manual build of this module and decided to use PPM. Since this is the SAME issue as before, just different error, I am going to merge the two threads together.

In the future, if you are working on the same problem, but change your attack method to the problem, please keep the thread together and do not split it off into seperate threads.

re: Problem in installing DBD::ORACLE PACKAGE

What is this CPAN interface. From where i can receive this CPAN interface to install perl packages.

Please give me some details setps and instructions which are should be followed to complete this task.

re: Problem in installing DBD::ORACLE PACKAGE

The CPAN interface is part of Perl. If you are using linux/unix then type the following at the command line:

That will put you into the CPAN shell. From there, if you have never run it, you will have to configure it so that it is setup. Just follow the on screen instructions.

To install a module, after you have completed the initial cpan setup, you would just type:

install <module::name>

For instance, it is recommended, after you complete the cpan setup, to install the cpan bundle to get the latest version. You would do that by issuing the command:

install Bundle::CPAN
