hi justin, it is your oracle install. i have had bad experiences with the fancy shmancy 8.1.x java installer myself. oci.h is in a subdirectory of $ORACLE_HOME called 'rdbms'. i remember doing the client setup did not give me the stuff i needed so i basically copied everything it was missing from a second pretty much identical box with a full server install. it would be easiest if you had a machine with a full server install. jens ---- Jens Vagelpohl jens@digicool.com Software Engineer www.digicool.com Digital Creations (888) 344-4332 Got Zope? ---- on 5/29/00 18:04, Justin Sheehy at dworkin@ccs.neu.edu wrote:

Hello,

I am trying to build the DCOracle module and having trouble right off the bat. I have tried both 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 b1 with the same results.

The file src/oci_8.c does an #include "oci.h", but I don't seem to have a file named oci.h in my oracle install:

$ find $ORACLE_HOME -name '*.h' /opt/orahome1/network/public/tnsapi.h /opt/orahome1/network/public/nzerror.h /opt/orahome1/network/public/nzt.h /opt/orahome1/otrace/public/epc.h /opt/orahome1/plsql/public/ociextp.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sql2oci.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlucs2.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/oraca.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlapr.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlca.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlcpr.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlda.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlkpr.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/a.out.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/limits.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/bits/mathcalls.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sys/ipc.h

My Oracle install is the 'Programmer' distribution from Oracle 8.1.5.

Do I need the full install, not just the Programmer install, or am I missing something else?

I tried using the Setup file for Oracle 8i on Linux that was sent to this list by Laurent Chane-Chuen-Kee, but that does not have any effect on the problem.

Thanks,
