This is probably a repeat questions BUT I can find the previous answer....
I am running redhat 9 std install. I want to connect to a remote Oracle 8 machine via Perl. I have the DBD Oracle 1.5 tar file. Unfortunately it complains about an ORACLE_HOME environmental variable. perl Makefile.PL bombs out....
>From reading the clients.readme file, it appears that I must have Oracle files on my machine in order to access Oracle on another machine. I am a bit confused. My expertise to date is win32::odbc with perl and access. My plan is to move Access to MYSQL but I also have to get at a table on a remote Oracle 8 machine.
Anyone use DBD to get at oracle? What do I have to install?
John
