Re: The procedure entry point Perl_Glockhook_ptr could not be located in the dynamic link library perl58.dll

There's no way to resolve this issue short of upgrading the perl version itself?

I spent a whole day trying to what caused and found out ActiveState dll had a wrong version DLL in the 5.8.7 distro
This is fixed in the 5.8.8 distro at http://www.activestate.com/store/productdetail.aspx?prdGuid=81fbce82-6bd5-49bc-a915-08d58c2648ca
(be sure to download 5.8.8 or later release e.g. ActivePerl-5.8..8.819-MSWin32-x86-267479.msi works)

When I try

( $dbh = DBI->connect($dbSID,$dbUser,$dbPassword) ) or die DBI->errstr;

I get a pop-up stating this error
"The procedure entry point Perl_Glockhook_ptr could not be located in the dynamic link library perl58.dll"

What I see on the command prompt is the following
"install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load 'C:/Perl/site/lib/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.dll' for module DBD::Oracle: load_file:The specified procedure could not be found at C:/Perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 230.
at (eval 1678) line 3
Compilation failed in require at (eval 1678) line 3.
Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at C:\Perl\test.pl line 43"

A similar problem was reported earlier and the suggested resolution was to download the ppm's from a site that doesn't let me in (esoftmatic.com) so I'm not sure how to proceed at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Perl 8.1.7 build 815
DBI 1.52
DBD-Oracle 1.17
Oracle Client 9.2.0.1
Windows 2000 5.00.2195 SP4

Thanks,
Amir.
