I'm struggling with the DBI too, one of the things that my book says is
that you can create config files the DBI will use. Is it possible that
you have an Oracle config file (perhaps stored by your sysadmin) that is
giving the DBI the wrong ideas?

One way to think about this that stack of
environmental variables, peter had mentioned.

The user may have those in their '.cshrc' or '.bashrc'
and hence able to do 'the right thing' from the command line.
But one will need to make sure that the 'code' gets them as
well. Hence having a config file that will be read only
and in a well known place can help make sure that one
has them defined and stuffed into the

$ENV{'ORACLE_HOME'}

etc, etc, etc....
