Wise Monks,

My script: 
#!/cadappl/bin/perl -IDoc -Ilib
use Doc::DBI; #inherits from Class::DBI

[download]
with module 
package Doc::DBI;

use base 'Class::DBI';

Doc::DBI->connection('DBI:mysql:database=abcdefg;host=host.tld', 'user
+', 'passwd');

1;

Works fine on the command line and as cgi. Now i am trying to make it work under mod_perl. Trying use lib on the command-line fails, with this error: 
Can't locate object method "connection" via package "Doc::DBI" (perhap
+s you forgot to load "Doc::DBI"?) at /home/hive/25167/perl/Doc/DBI.pm
+ line 5.
Compilation failed in require at /home/hive/25167/cgi-bin/productie/li
+b/Ima/DBI.pm line 7.

I assume use lib loads the module at another time than -I but why won't it work?

In reply to 'use lib' versus '-I' by Jaap
