Are there any pre-compiled Perl and DBD-Oracle for HPUX 11.i-64-bit?

[Peter Rupp_2]

Any pointers would be helpful.
We installed a pre-compiled perl 5.8.4 (HPUX porting centre) for HPUX 11.11 on a L3000 running HPUX 11.i (64bit). A guy in the development group is now trying to compile and install DBD-Oracle 1.6, but it fails on zillions of strange errors. Wonders if any pre-compiled versions exist for both perl and this module?
HELP!

Try Merijn's excellent HP-UX software for ITRC members site;

I hope you mean DBD-Oracle 1.16, not 1.6
1.06 is much too old, and 1.6 does not (yet) exist

And you will find no precompiled DBD-Oracle modules anywhere

Some pointers might help

1. Make sure your perl is also 64bit
http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/faq.html

2. Make sure you have DBI
# perl -MDBI -le'print $DBI::VERSION'
1.48

3. READ README.hpux in the DBI distribution *AND* in the DBD::Oracle distribution. We didn't write it just to be able to ship more bytes

4. Browse the ITRC (in the search box type "DBD Oracle procura perl")
That yields 50 links that may very well prove useful
