Hi - would very much appreciate any help with an issue I am having. I am *very* new to installing/configuring perl/apache, so am probably missing something simple/stupid.... But, here goes.

First, I am on Perl 5.8.8, Apache 2.0.52, Sun Sol 10, using DBI 1.58 and DBD (oracle) 1.19.

I am in the middle of trying to migrate some applications from an old server to new. I have installed all the above and a few other packages, and have some batch type perl scripts running using DBI/DBD just fine. I am now trying to get some programs running that are CGI based. When I try to run my script that uses DBI, I am getting this error in the Apache error log: 

 [Wed Aug 15 14:29:18 2007] [error] [client 10.0.112.59] Can't locate

I think that DBI is correctly configured in general, as I can run the batch/non-CGI type scripts fine. I looked through other posts and found one indicating some environment settings, so added settings for the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and such to the httpd.conf, but that did not do anything. I also tried to add some addt'l oracle libraries to the @INC so it would match my normal LD_LIBRARY_PATH, that also didn't seem to affect anything: 
push (@INC, "/opt/dbms/oracle/product/ora1020_64/lib", "/usr/lib", "/u
+sr/ccs/lib", "/usr/dt/lib");

Any help would be *greatly* appreciated! THANKS! BH
