DBI_DB2 problems

I have problems accessing my DB2 database via CGI in web application. I
am receiving this error:
install_driver(DB2) failed: Can't load
'/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto /DBD/DB2/DB2.so'
for module DBD::DB2: libdb2.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 229.
at (eval 22) line 3
Compilation failed in require at (eval 22) line 3.
Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected
at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/Bio/D B/Das/Chado.pm
line 135

I have read on googlegroup that i should setenv the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in
my httpd.conf but i don't know how to do that.
Theres is nothing about that variable in my httpd.conf
Do you know how i can set that variable or is there any other solution?
thank you

It sounds to me like you think you have an Apache configuration problem.
If your CGI script runs interactively, I agree with you.

Have you tried reading the Apache documentation?

Have you tried asking in an Apache-oriented newsgroup?

Hi Harry,
thanks for your message. If this can help anyone, I took my chance and
i solved it by adding to my httpd.conf the line
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /home/db2insts1/sqllib/lib which is the path
to the required DB2 library.
