Okay, bear with me here. This is a long story, but I want to give all the details.

I administrate a Solaris 8 box which is used for a large Oracle database. We've updated from Oracle 8i to Oracle 10g.

I'm able to install DBI-1.48 just fine, but when I try to install DBD-Oracle-1.16 I get all sorts of errors (examples further below) and it complains that maybe I need to recompile perl to include threads.

Oracle 64-bit version will require Perl 64-bit version. (the ELFCLASS error message).

Or, I believe the Oracle 64-bit version comes with 32-bit libraries also, not sure how to get them to be used.
