Errors trying to execute DBI::Sybase script...

Hi List;

I have a scriptthat is working on a SuSe 386 laptop. However when I
attempt to run it on a Redhat x86_64 box I get this:

DBI object version 1.40 does not match $DBI::VERSION 1.51 at
/usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader. pm line 253.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/D BI.pm line
259.
Compilation failed in require at ./sybase1.pl line 3.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./sybase1.pl line 3.

Any thoughts???

Re: Errors trying to execute DBI::Sybase script...

Someone has mixed two DBI installations, one 1.40 version and one 1.51
version. The 1.40 version may be inconmplete, but at least some
libraries survived and exist in a directory that is searched before the
directory where the 1.51 libraries exist. If you installed Perl only via
rpm, it's a Redhat bug. Look what parts of perl are installed, remove
them completely (using rpm, then rm -rf /usr/lib64/perl5) and reinstall
them (preferably by compiling perl from source instead of rpm).
