What is the application you are using with Oracle? It should have it's own database connection setup. If it does not the two most popular choices would be ODBC or Net8 (aka SQLNet). Net8 is probably more efficient and more flexible but only works with an Oracle DB so if you need your app to talk to another brand of database you would probably have to go back to the slower ODBC.
Most applications that I am aware of do not need to be in the same directory as the Oracle database or even on the same box for that matter. If you know the application, someone may be able to give you more specifics or tips on how to get it done.

apache::session::store::oracle
Apache::Session::Store::Oracle(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Apache::Session::Store::Oracle(3pm)
NAME
Apache::Session::Store::Oracle - Store persistent data in a Oracle database
SYNOPSIS
use Apache::Session::Store::Oracle;
my $store = new Apache::Session::Store::Oracle;
$store->insert($ref);
$store->update($ref);
$store->materialize($ref);
$store->remove($ref);
DESCRIPTION
Apache::Session::Store::Oracle fulfills the storage interface of Apache::Session. Session data is stored in a Oracle database.
SCHEMA
To use this module, you will need at least these columns in a table called 'sessions':
id varchar2(32) # or however long your session IDs are.
a_session long
To create this schema, you can execute this command using the sqlplus program:
CREATE TABLE sessions (
id varchar2(32) not null primary key,
a_session long
);
If you use some other command, ensure that there is a unique index on the table's id column.
CONFIGURATION
The module must know what datasource, username, and password to use when connecting to the database. These values can be set using the
options hash (see Apache::Session documentation). The options are DataSource, UserName, and Password.
Example:
tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Oracle', $id, {
DataSource => 'dbi:Oracle:database',
UserName => 'database_user',
Password => 'K00l'
};
Instead, you may pass in an already-opened DBI handle to your database.
tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Oracle', $id, {
Handle => $dbh
};
The last option is LongReadLen, which specifies the maximum size of the session object. If not supplied, the default maximum size is 8 KB.
