DBD::Oracle installation causing error

问题

I want to connect to an Oracle Database through Perl. For this, I'm trying to install DBD::Oracle from CPAN by using the following command:

[root@localhost Admin]# cpan DBD::Oracle

While running above command on my Linux terminal, I'm getting the following error:

[root@localhost Admin]# cpan DBD::Oracle
CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.45)

  CPAN.pm: Going to build P/PY/PYTHIAN/DBD-Oracle-1.70.tar.gz

Using DBI 1.609 (for perl 5.010001 on x86_64-linux-thread-multi) installed in /usr/lib64/perl5/auto/DBI/

Configuring DBD::Oracle for perl 5.010001 on linux (x86_64-linux-thread-multi)

Remember to actually *READ* the README file! Especially if you have any problems.

Trying to find an ORACLE_HOME
Your LD_LIBRARY_PATH env var is set to ''

      The ORACLE_HOME environment variable is not set and I couldn't guess it.
      It must be set to hold the path to an Oracle installation directory
      on this machine (or a machine with a compatible architecture).
      See the appropriate README file for your OS for more information.
      ABORTED!

Warning: No success on command[/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site]

  /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site -- NOT OK

[root@localhost Admin]#

Currently I'm using LINUX CentOS. On my machine I'm already using SQLDeveloper to connect to the Oracle database, but I don't know whether ORACLE_HOME is set or not because I didn't install that one.

Has anyone experienced the same problem before? Please tell me how to resolve this error .

回答1:

Refer these steps in given sequence.

Install Perl DBI module

install below 3 rpm for oracle instant client (from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/linuxx86-64soft-092277.html)

oracle-instantclient11.2-basic-11.2.0.3.0-1
oracle-instantclient11.2-devel-11.2.0.3.0-1
oracle-instantclient11.2-sqlplus-11.2.0.3.0-1

I am using 64 bit linux box, so choose your RPM accordingly.

set below variables:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/lib
ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64

MacOS users will need:

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/

Also add ORACLE_HOME to your PATH variable.

download DBD::Oracle from CPAN
untar the module and run below commands in given sequence:
```
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
```
OR you can install the module using cpan command

DONE !!!

Thanks for the info! I noticed that oracle-instantclient12.1-devel-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm installed into /usr. So adding a soft link like this helps me solved the problem.

sudo ln -s /usr/include/oracle/11.2/client64 $ORACLE_HOME/include
