[Gusdev-gusdev] db connection problem

[<tw...@cs...>]

I am experiencing a problem with Oracle 9i, on Redhat 8,
using Perl v5.8.4 built for i686-linux, I get this problem
with the GUS object layer:

DBI subclasses 'GUS::ObjRelP::DbiDbHandle::db' and ::st are not setup, 
RootClass ignored at /farm/gus/gushome/lib/perl/GUS/ObjRelP/DbiDatabase.pm line 152

I have installed the Perl modules/packages DBI and DBD::Oracle 
without a problem, it seems.  DBD::Oracle in the Perl install recognizes
GUS. A snippet from the output during installation:

   Oraperl emulation interface version 1.44 
   DBD::Oracle 1.15 using OCI8 by Tim Bunce
   DBI 1.42 by Tim Bunce

   Data sources:
        dbi:Oracle:EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA.ITTC.KU.EDU
        dbi:Oracle:GUS.ITTC.KU.EDU
        dbi:Oracle:INST1_HTTP.ITTC.KU.EDU
        dbi:Oracle:gus


Does anyone have any idea what could be the matter?

Is there an order dependence on the Perl database interface
and the GUS install? 

DBD::ODBC won't install; it complains about not having a device
driver. Is DBD::ODBC necessary? 

Even though this is a jolly time, any advice to help me move
on would be so greatly appreciated.
