Configure PERL DBI and DBD in Linux
- by Balualways
I am new to Perl and I work in a Linux OEL 5x server. I am trying to configure the Perl DB modules for Oracle connectivity (DBD and DBI modules). Can anyone help me out in the installation procedure?
I had tried CPAN didn't really worked out.
Any help would be appreciated. I am not quite sure I need to initialize any variables other than $LD_LIBRARY_PATH and $ORACLE_HOME
These are my observations:
ISSUE::
I am getting the following issue while using the DBI module to connect to Oracle:
install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't locate loadable object for module DBD::Oracle in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 .) at (eval 3) line 3
Compilation failed in require at (eval 3) line 3.
Perhaps a module that DBD::Oracle requires hasn't been fully installed
at connectdb.pl line 57
I had installed the DBD for oracle from /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/DBD/DBD-Oracle-1.50
Could you please take a look into the steps and correct me if I am wrong:

$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

$ echo $ORACLE_HOME
/usr/local/oracle/ORA
This is how I tried to install the DBD module:
Download the file DBD 1.50 for Oracle
Copy to /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/DBD
Untar and Makefile.PL
