I am running several scripts (using DBI) succesfully in a browser and am retrieving data from a mysql db.
However when i execute the same script at the command promt it cant seem to locate the DBI module. Does anyone know why this could be?
Here is the error at the command prompt in case you wanted to see it.
Can't locate DBI.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 +/i686-linu x /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686 +-linux /us r/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at + cat_ed.pl line 11. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at cat_ed.pl line 11.


THanks, costas
