Hello DBI and DBD Experts!

We've been running along great with DBI 1.37, DBD-Oracle 1.13 on AIX
5.2 and using Oracle 9.2.

Unfortunately, we upgraded to Oracle Client 9.2.0.4 this weekend, and
everything DBD-Oracle broke!

We tried re-compiling, upgrading to DBI 1.4, DBD 1.15rc3, but with no
luck.

Oracle is running in 64 bit mode, but we've had that working just fine
prior to the Oracle 9.2.0.4 upgrade. We can compile DBI,DBD-Oracle,
but when we go to access Oracle, we see the following error:

install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load
'/usr/opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/aix-thread-multi/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so'
for module DBD::Oracle: Permission denied at
/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.8.0/aix-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 229,
<DATA> line 207.
 at (eval 27) line 3
Compilation failed in require at (eval 27) line 3, <DATA> line 207.
Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where
expected
 at (eval 26) line 36 at (eval 28) line 5, <DATA> line 207.
Out of Memory!

Of course, we've checked permissions on Oracle.so, and it's wide-open.

Any help?

If I need to post more details, please let me know what is needed!

Thanks,
Tony
