hi, im trying to build the DC Oracle thing (needed for ZOracleDA), but apparently it needs to know where (on the same system) oracle is installed. what do i do if the oracle is installed on another system? i think this is a common thing, no? -- Maarten Slaets Web Developer KPNQwest Belgium http://www.fonky.com/vcard/MaartenSlaets/

I have never installed the DCOracle package, but what I understand is that it only needs the client libraries. The probably can installed on their own on your machine. -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | Tel: +31-35-7502100 Fax: +31-35-7502111 | mailto:mj@antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ------------------------------------------

To compile DCOracle, you need to Oracle client libraries on the machine DCOracle is running on. This means either installing Oracle or the client libraries, which I thing, though I'm not sure, is a seperate package you must purchase from Oracle. In either case, it's an oracle issue. -Michel

You need the Oracle network client (SQL*Net) installed on the machine. Just about everything that talks to Oracle requires them unless the authors have rewritten Oracle's OCI layer (such as Oracle's JDBC drivers). ___ // Zen (alias Stuart Bishop) Work: zen@cs.rmit.edu.au // E N Senior Systems Alchemist Play: zen@shangri-la.dropbear.id.au //__ Computer Science, RMIT WWW: http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/~zen

What system are you using? Some days ago I installed successfully DCOracle on my RedHat 6.0 system with an Oracle 8.0.5. If you have a Linux system you may not have an SQL*Client, you should install an entire Oracle server just to have the client library files. If you want you may manually copy the necessary files from the Oracle distribution CD, but I have never done this. This may not be very complex, if you are good at compiling and linking C programs/libraries. I may help you, if you want, Miklos Nemeth

There is an option in the installer to only install the client libraries. --sam
