I'm hoping someone can give me some hints on this.  My CDBI application
has a web interface using mod_perl and Mason.  I'm currently using MySQL

The problem I'm running into is that after updating the DB using a web

Is anything 'baked-in' from the oracle environment to a DBD:Oracle

I submitted a bug via the email interface to rt: bug-dbd-oracle at
rt.cpan.org, but I have no reason to believe that bug report got
through.  I didn't want to have to register a bunch of places to submit
a bug, but I'm willing to if its the only way.  Otherwise, is there

I know this has been discussed before but no solution was proposed. I
searched google but couldn't find anything useful either. I am trying
to compile DBD::Oracle 1.22 on an AIX 5.3 platform, using the Oracle
10g instant client. I initially ran into the OCI error so I went back

I am having a problem with connecting to an Oracle DB with DBD-Oracle.

Has anyone successfully installed DBD-SQLAnywhere-1.16 on a HP-UX???   I
