Hi. My name is Randall and I am from Costa Rica.

I have a little problem. I did an application using Perl, DBI and
DBI::Oracle, and now I have to upload my application in an Unix
server. The problem is that the server doesn't have DBI and
DBI::Oracle packages and the owner's server doesn't want to install
the packages because he thinks that the installation will change the
server configuration, and that server has a lot of web applications in
perl, c, etc.

So my question is:

What will change if I install DBI and DBI:Oracle package??

It's possible that the server configuration changes and the other
application fall down!!!

In the installation process, what does DBI package do and change??

It's too important, for me, to know that, to explain the owner's
server, that won't be a problem to install the packages.

 

Thanks a lot!!!!
