Indeed the topic has been discussed elsewhere, but please note that there has been no resolution there either. I am seeking advice on how to correct the problem.

The code worked fine on server #1. Move the code to server#2 and it does not work. Server #2 was set up by tech support with Perl installed. Server #2 has Control Panel access, where various modules of Perl can be installed. I installed the DBD::mysql modules via the Control Panel. If this error is suggesting that there is some incompatibility between the installed version of Perl and the install DBD::mysql module, I would like to know. I can talk to tech support about this. Right now, their position is that my code is at fault.

If there is a way to install a compatible version of DBD::mysql, then I need some guidance on how to do this.

Pete
