It must be set to hold the path to an Oracle installation directory

How can I get around this?

Re: DBD::Oracle Install Problems

ranganath ramachandra — Mon, 26 Jul 2004 10:22:04 GMT

has the variable been exported ?

Re: DBD::Oracle Install Problems

H.Merijn Brand (procura — Mon, 26 Jul 2004 10:38:53 GMT

If it can be echoed, it's exported enough.

What's your vesion of DBD::Oracle you want to install?

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Re: DBD::Oracle Install Problems

Fred Ruffet — Mon, 26 Jul 2004 12:25:27 GMT

looking at your PATH, it should be DBD::Oracle 1.14 :)

Why this version ? There is now a more recent version.

Could you send output from
set | grep -e ORA -e NLS

Regards,

Fred

i'm assuming that the script really didnt find the variable set.

i could not get a shell script to access the value of a parent shell's variable that was not exported (i tried only sh & bash on hpux and linux) so here goes some blah-blah:
----
bash-2.01$ BLAH=blah
bash-2.01$ echo $BLAH
blah
bash-2.01$ cat /tmp/blah
echo $BLAH
bash-2.01$ sh -x /tmp/blah
+ echo

bash-2.01$ bash -x /tmp/blah
+ echo

bash-2.01$ sh
$ echo $BLAH

$ BLAH=blah
$ sh -x /tmp/blah
+ echo

$ bash -x /tmp/blah
+ echo

Re: DBD::Oracle Install Problems

H.Merijn Brand (procura — Mon, 26 Jul 2004 12:57:45 GMT

# export ORACLE_HOME
# export ORACLE_SID

BUT, I can't imagine that Oracle would work at all when these are not exported.

That said, as Fred said, DBD::Oracle-1.15 is the most recent DBD-Oracle, and DBI-1.43 is newer than 1.40 (at the moment of writing. I expect DBD-Oracle-1.16 pretty soon)

Very sorry for the late response...

[root@bdhp4264:/root]

I am going to try 1.15 and then we'll see what happens

Re: DBD::Oracle Install Problems

Tonya Underwood — Tue, 27 Jul 2004 08:38:08 GMT

OK... on 1.15 I get through with no errors until make test.

Here is a snip... but I have attached the entire output as well...

Looks like an easy call, which is explained in Perl's README.hpux

If all is properly installed, check

# man perlhpux

and then

# perl -V:libs

If that does not have -lcl and -lpthread you're out of luck for Oracle, and you will have to get yourself another Perl binary

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

You are right...

So, if new binary needed... you are speaking of new perl install correct? How can I be sure I will have these libs prior to install...

THANKS!!!

Re: DBD::Oracle Install Problems

Tonya Underwood — Thu, 29 Jul 2004 10:28:14 GMT

Procura.... I don't suppose you have 5.6.1 with those libs do you? Or must I go with 5.8.x?

Re: DBD::Oracle Install Problems

Tonya Underwood — Fri, 30 Jul 2004 13:23:46 GMT

Extracted your perl version... perl 5.8.5... Do I need to do something else?

# ./perl/bin/perl -v

I /think/ you fetched yourself a 64bit perl, where the original question was about using perl with Oracle in a 32bit environment!

--8<---
Summary of my perl5 (revision 5.0 version 8 subversion 3) configuration:
Platform:
osname=hpux, osvers=11.00, archname=PA-RISC2.0
uname='hp-ux ness b.11.00 a 9000780 2012209406 two-user license '
config_args='-d -e -Dcc=gcc -Dprefix=/usr/local useposix=true'
hint=recommended, useposix=true, d_sigaction=define
usethreads=undef use5005threads=undef useithreads=undef usemultiplicity=undef
useperlio=define d_sfio=undef uselargefiles=define usesocks=undef
use64bitint=undef use64bitall=undef uselongdouble=undef
usemymalloc=n, bincompat5005=undef
-->8---

This is a gcc compiled perl for 32bit environment.

On HP-UX 32bit and 64bit do *not* mix. period.

Check your OS:
# uname -a

if it is 11.11 (11i), get yourself a 11.11 build. If it is 11.00, get yourself the 11.00 build

http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/perl-5.8.5-gcc-3.4.1-11.00-pa20.tbz

is what I think you want. And it is not unlikely you also want the matching GNU gcc compiler:

http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/gcc-3.4.1-32-11.00-hppa2.0.tbz

Those will not use /usr/lib/pa20_64/dld.sl
If they do, I made a huge error, which I will have to fix right away.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Yes... I accidentally misposted this... Very sorry.

Thanks.
