I have Perl 5.20 Windows running with Sybase Open Client 15.7 and am having issues connecting to the database. Here is the code:
use DBI; use strict; my $database = "<server name>"; my $db = "<db name>"; my $uid = "<Sybase ID>"; my $pwd = "<Sybase Password"; my %defaults = ( AutoCommit => 1, # Autocommit enabled. PrintError => 0 # Errors not automatically printed. ); my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SybaseASE:server=$database;database=$db", +"$uid", "$pwd" ); # or die "Cannot connect to $database: $DBI::errstr\n"; $dbh->disconnect; exit(0); __END__
The error I'm getting is as follows:

Can't locate loadable object for module DBD::SybaseASE in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl64/site/lib C:/Perl64/lib .) at ....

I can see the SybaseASE.pm module is installed in the Sybase folder, but is there a problem with Perl locating it?
