Gavin,

I'm not sure which OH itt was looking at, but more importantly, it had an incorrect value for the NLS var.

SOLVED Thanks Ron,

I have another oracle home for Oracle9ias . NLS_LANG was set right in
The database oracle_home, but set as NA in the IAS home.

I have set an environment variable NLS_LANG so that all homes will pick it
up.

The connect now works. I am just puzzled as to why
DBI and DBD-Oracle in previous versions worked, then did not work
When I updated them. Which Oracle home was it looking at?

Anyway thanks again

Gavin

Environment = Windows XP, perl 5.6 (activestate)



I recently upgraded my DBI module to 1.32

And DBD-Oracle to 1.16



I have an Oracle 9 database on my PC, and have been connecting to it using
DBI with no problems.



On upgrading to the above versions (I think the prior DBD was 1.12)

My connection no longer works



Here is the code which has not changed

# $!perl -w





use strict;

use DBI;





DBI->trace(2,"my_trace.txt");

my %attr = (RaiseError => 0, AutoCommit =>1);

my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Oracle:host=127.0.0.1;sid=GAV", 'tdf', 'bike',
\%attr)

or die "Failed to connect to database: $DBI::errstr";

my $sth = $dbh->prepare("

SELECT distinct (owner)

FROM tdf_results

" );

$sth->execute();









Here is the error





C:\databases\perl\eg>perl tdftest4.pl

DBI connect('host=127.0.0.1;sid=GAV','tdf',...) failed: ORA-12705: invalid
or unknown NLS parameter

value specified (DBD ERROR: OCISessionBegin) at tdftest4.pl line 10

Failed to connect to database: ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter
value specified (DBD ERRO

R: OCISessionBegin) at tdftest4.pl line 10.



Is this a known issue, or am I unlucky? Can anyone help, or point me in the
right direction?



Thanks



Gavin
