Bugzilla installation went ok on Oracle but when trying it for the
first time through Mozilla I am getting the following error:

'Oracle' is not a valid choice for $db_driver in localconfig: Can't
load 'C:/Perl/site/lib/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.dll' for module
DBD::Oracle: load_file:The specified module could not be found at C:/

I am on Windows 2003 and using IIS, also configured Oracle client and
environment vars ORACLE_HOME if they are used by IIS not sure.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help

Please try to copy oraociei10.dll and oci.dll to the Bugzilla
installation directory, or somewhere they can be found

I copied the oci.dll from my oracle installation folder to C:\Perl\lib
\auto\DBD\Oracle and that fixed the error!
