I am new to this forum and certainly not a Perl expert.

I have a website that is an auction for the commercial fishing industry. It has been up and running since 2011. It is currently located on a shared hosting site and I am in the process of moving it to a VPS site on another company's server. I have move all the files and database to the new location and I have been testing everything before I have the DNS pointed to the new location. For the most part everything looks good. I have an archive section, where a user can look at tables of past sales. These are generated from data stored in a mysql database. The display of past sales works fine.

However, when I test a new sale I get an error when that sale is being inserted into the database. For speed in testing I have been using a "buy-it-now" feature rather than have to wait for an auction to end.

The code begins as below:

#!/usr/bin/perlml

BEGIN {
 my $base_module_dir = (-d '/home/jeffer36/perl' ? '/home/jeffer36/per
+l' : ( getpwuid($>) )[7] . '/perl/');
 unshift @INC, map { $base_module_dir . $_ } @INC;
 unshift @INC, '/home/jeffer36/perl5/lib/perl5','/home/jeffer36/perl5/
+lib/perl5/x86_64-linux','/home/jeffer36/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux/
+Bundle';
        }
use POSIX qw(strftime); 
use File::Copy;
use strict;
use CGI; 
use CGI::Session;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use File::CounterFile;
use Data::Dumper;
use DBI;
#use DBD::mysql;

When the sale is being inserted into the database this is the error message:

install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load '/home/jeffer36/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so' for module DBD::mysql: /home/jeffer36/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: undefined symbol: PL_perl_destruct_level at /usr/lib64/perl5/DynaLoader.pm line 200, <BUYERFILE> line 88. at (eval 16) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 16) line 3, <BUYERFILE> line 88. Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at ../auction/buyit.pl line 284</P.

Line 284 in buyit.pl is:

my $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$db:$server", $userid, $passwd);

I have search the web for information on this error message and have come up empty. Does anyone have suggestions on how to correct the problem?
