[mp2] Env Variable / Oracle config problem

[Steve Duran <st...@nmmcc.com>]

  Hello,

  I'm trying to get a basic web app running under mod_perl2, using an Oracle database connection.  After I define the environment variables listed below, the test script works fine from the command line, but fails with the following error when I try to run it via the web server.  If I do not define the environment variables, I get the same error on the command line as I do from the web server.

  I have tried different ways of defining the enviroment variables for the script, but nothing seems to work.

  This is the error that I get from the web server (Apache 2)

[Fri Nov 18 14:15:54 2005] [error] Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so' for module DBD::Oracle: libclntsh.so.9.0:

  This is and excerpt from httpd.conf:

SetEnv ORACLE_HOME /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4
SetEnv ORACLE_USERID foo/foo@bar
SetEnv ASSUME_KERNEL 2.4.19
SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4/lib

LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

PerlModule Apache2::compat
PerlModule Apache::DBI


ScriptAlias /test/ "/web/cgi-bin/test/"

<Directory "/web/cgi-bin/test">
  Options +ExecCGI
  SetHandler perl-script
  PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
  PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
</Directory>


Beginning of test.pl:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use Apache::DBI;
use DBI;
use DBD::Oracle;
use CGI qw(:standard);
use Text::TagTemplate;
use Storable;

BEGIN
{
  $ENV{'ORACLE_HOME'} = '/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4';
  $ENV{'ORACLE_USERID'} = 'foo/foo@bar';
  $ENV{'ASSUME_KERNEL'} = '2.4.19';
  $ENV{'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'} = '/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4/lib';
}

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks,

  Steve

Try this:

PerlSetEnv ORACLE_HOME /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4
PerlSetEnv ORACLE_USERID foo/foo@bar <ma...@bar>
PerlSetEnv ASSUME_KERNEL 2.4.19
PerlSetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4/lib
