You have to check if setuid perl is installed on Your machine. This is
dependent on OS and Distribution, so we’d need that info to be of more help.

I installed perl and all the modules needed to connect to oracle as well as
all the modules needed for RT. However rt’s installation script dies when
it tries to connect to the database which other perl scripts can do.
I get the following error when running make install.
DBI->connect(dbname=kdqctdev;host=winchester) failed: Can’t connect using
this syntax without specifying a HOST and a SID at
/local/mnt/workspace/jgedeon/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/DBIx/SearchBuilder/Handle.pm
line 117
Connect Failed Can’t connect using this syntax without specifying a HOST
and a SID
at //local/mnt/workspace/jgedeon/local/rt2/etc/insertdata line 27
*** Error code 255
Any one offer some tips?

I believe that the Oracle DBD requires several environment variables to
be set, including SID. Ensure that they are set and exported in your
environment, and ensure that the startup scripts for mod_perl (if you’re
using mod_perl) have the environment variables set as well.

I’m still not working 100% yet.
A user can send in a request to a queue.
The root user can take it
He can reply
The user gets the reply
When he replies, he gets “Correspondence not recorded” from a different
address.

by exported what do you mean? and what variables does mod_perl need… and
that doesn’t explain why other scripts can connect to the same database
using the same install of perl and dbd?

The difference between:
$ FOO=bar
and
$ FOO=bar; export FOO
is that in the first case, subprocesses (i.e., scripts and such
launched by your shell) cannot access $FOO, while in the second case
they can – export marks the variable as propogatable (is that a word?).
I was attempting to imply that, perhaps, the enviroment under which you
are running the programs does have the appropriate Oracle environment
variables defined and properly exported in your startup files, while the
environment under which you are running the installer (root?) does not.
Note that if you are not using a sh-alike (sh, bash, ksh?), this is not
an issue, but, again, if you are running the install script as root, the
shell is most likely sh (does any *nix ship with root’s shell as something
else?)
As far as what environment variables Oracle uses, that I cannot help you
with; I’m not an Oracle user, but this has come up on the mod_perl list
enough that I’m starting to recognize the symptoms. 
A search of the
mod_perl guide for Oracle
(http://perl.apache.org/search/swish.cgi?query=oracle&sbm=SecF&submit=search)
comes up with some helpful information, e.g.:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/troubleshooting.html#install_driver_Oracle__failed__Can_t_load______DBD_Oracle_Oracle_so__for_module_DBD__Oracle
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/config.html#PerlSetEnv_and_PerlPassEnv
Good luck.
