Perl Module DBD::ORACLE

[polarbear]

Friends.

When I attempt to install the DBD::ORACLE modual it hangs after one
line of output.

I have installed several other modules including DBI with out
problems. Has anyone seen this.

What does this mean? One line of output from 'perl Makefile.PL'? Or ?
Did you read the README* docs?

I would like to follow up and let anyone who has this issue know what
the fix was:


EDIT Makefile.PL
Change Line 95 from:
my $is_me = (-d "/home/timbo/dbi" && ($ENV{LOGNAME}||'') eq 'timbo');
# a reasonable guess

to:
my $is_me = 0;

When I said one line the output looked like:
[logger] DBD-Oracle-1.14> perl Makefile.PL
Multiple copies of Driver.xst found Using DBI 1.38 installed in
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/sun4-solaris/auto/DBI

That is it. Untill Ctrl+c.

I have installed several other modules including DBI with out problems. Has anyone seen this. -Ken
