Hi,

You need to set up the syb_err_handler. Take a look at the DBD::Sybase documentation.

From the man page: 

  sub err_handler {
      my($err, $sev, $state, $line, $server,
        $proc, $msg, $sql, $err_type) = @_;
 
      my @msg = ();
      if($err_type eq 'server') {
         push @msg,
           ('',
            'Server message',
            sprintf('Message number: %ld, Severity %ld, State %ld, Lin
+e %ld',
                    $err,$sev,$state,$line),
            (defined($server) ? "Server '$server' " : '') .
            (defined($proc) ? "Procedure '$proc'" : ''),
            "Message String:$msg");
      } else {
         push @msg,
           ('',
            'Open Client Message:',
            sprintf('Message number: SEVERITY = (%ld) NUMBER = (%ld)',
                    $sev, $err),
            "Message String: $msg");
      }
      print STDERR join("\n",@msg);
      return 0; ## CS_SUCCEED
  }

NOTE - if you set the error handler in the DBI->connect() call like this 

 $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Sybase:server=troll', 'sa', '', 
                    { syb_err_handler => \&err_handler });
