I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Installing DBI in Perl 5.005
Dear Friends, I am not having much experience in Perl except from programming. I have Perl 5.005 in Unix environment.I have no issues with running any PErl Script. But I cant access my Oracle Database(92) through Perl Script. Its throwing error
Can't locate object method "connect" via package "DBI" Can't locate dbi.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris /usr/perl5/5.00503 /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005/sun4-solaris /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005 .) at PerlDatabaseConnection.pl line 10.
Please let me know which version of DBI shud I install and where can I get this. If we dont have Perl5.005 compatible DBI in market; then what is the other alternative...
Regards
Naim
