Re: DBI::PurePerl and DBD::Oracle...

When that many test fail with DBD::Oracle the most likely cause is that you do not have a correct ORACLE_USERID enviornment variable set.

Chech the readmes for this. they should answer your questions

Hi all,

Just trying to understand the instructions on both these packages. Each
set of instructions explains that we do the following steps in the
following order:
- perl Makefile.PL
- make
- make test
- make install

Thing is, everything works fine except the make test. On the initial
pass, if I run "make test" BEFORE I run "make install" about half the
tests (50%) fail. If I then run "make install" and then RERUN "make
test" I get a 95%+ success rate.

I guess I'm trying to understand "why" we run the make test prior to
running the make install?

thx in advance,
