Help: Oracle 10G installtion screwed up my perl


Hi, group,



I used DBI a lot but not experenced in setting up perl.



On my WinXP sp2, I have perl 5.6.1 installed and a lot of scripts depend on that. Recently I installed Oracle 10g Version 2, it added a new system variable

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PERL5LIB=d:\oracle\ora102\perl\5.8.3\lib\MSWin32-x86;d:\oracle\ora102\perl\5.8.3\lib;d:\oracle\ora102\perl\5.8.3\lib\MSWin32-x86;d:\oracle\ora102\perl\site\5.8.3;d:\oracle\ora102\perl\site\5.8.3\lib;d:\oracle\ora102\sysman\admin\scripts;

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now my poor DBI perl script stopped working. For example, (this is not a DBI script, but just an example how Oracle 10G screwed things up)

C:>ppm
Perl lib version (v5.8.3) doesn't match executable version (v5.6.1) at d:\oracle
\ora102\perl\5.8.3\lib/MSWin32-x86-multi-thread/Config.pm line 32.
Compilation failed in require at d:\Perl\bin/ppm.bat line 18.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at d:\Perl\bin/ppm.bat line 18.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried to add my perl path to PERL5LIB=d:\perl\lib;..............

I got

This application fas failed to start because perl58.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Could somebody help me?



Thanks
