Re: [Gusdev-gusdev] Perl-DBD-Oracle - info request

Hi Alberto,

It should be fairly trivial to install DBD::Oracle from source (or, if  
you already have CPAN installed, then that approach is even easier).

First, the read me for DBD::Oracle:   
http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/htdocs/DBD-Oracle/README.html

Download DBD::Oracle:   
http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/cpan/authors/id/T/TI/TIMB/DBD-Oracle 
-1.15.tar.gz

Uncompress the archive, and then:

perl Makefile.PL
make test
make install

I frequently have make test fail-- usually it's not a big deal, because  
it does connection test with a database, and I don't provide the  
necessary information to allow those to happen.  In this case, you can  
just to a force install.
