To know if DBI is installe


perl -e 'use DBI;'

To the version of DBI installed

DBI version 2 required--this is only version 1.52 at -e line 1.

[tr175267@rbmhx02a ~]$

When we use the command ‘perl –e “use DBI <version>”’ or ‘perl –e “use
DBD::Oracle <version>”’, it checks if perl DBI and perl DBD::Oracle is installed, and if the
release is equal or bigger than the <version> parameter we used. So, when I use the number “2”
as parameter, it shows this error message saying that the version installed is 1.52 and 1.38.

And if we use the same command without the version, it shows an error if the package is not
installed, or don’t show any message if it’s installed.
