Hello
I'm trying to write a script in 5.6.0 using DBI 1.28 and DBD-Oracle 1.12 (oracle parallel server 8.1.7.0.0 on Compaq Tru64) and I can not get fetchrow_hashref working correctly (DBI and DBD installed OK no errors)

Below are two versions of the code (i want to use the top one! - it returns pages of blanks - the second version returns the details as expected! 

while (my $data = $sth->fetchrow_hashref) { 
            my $supplier = $data->{'supplier'}; 
               print $supplier . "\n"; 
} 

#while (my @data = $sth->fetchrow_array) { 
#            #my $supplier = $data->{'supplier'}; 
#            my $supplier = $data[0]; 
#            print $supplier . "\n"; 
#}

Thank you in advance
