strange problem connecting oracle db

[kanishka1213]

the things work fine for me . the only thing is did was uninstalling active perl and deleting all files associated with it and installing it again. the thing i guess was some perl files were on this computer and i installed it again . :-). happy endings.
thankyou kevin and Jeff.

Very good, that would have have been my next suggestion, check for more than one install of perl. If you have a modern computer strawberry perl seems to work good. The newest version even comes with DBI and the mysql drivers already included, which I am pretty sure activeperl doesn't, although that might not be a benefit for you.

But if you decide to try strawberry perl you have to uninstall activeperl first.

Thanks for the suggestions
