Hi,

I am developing some web pages to drive an oracle database. I am using perl modules(DBI and DBD::Oracle). On linux everything works fine. I want to move the pages to Mac OS X. When I try to install DBD::Oracle module, it is looking for ORACLE_HOME env where oracle binaries reside.

I am not finding anything. So my question is: Do I need oracle binaries/drivers on the client box to connect to the oracle server? Is there anyother odbc route to avoid needing oracle binaries?

thanks,
