Try playing with different ways to connect. Your CSV does not comply to minimal CSV rules, so you'd have to loosen them or complain to the author/generator of the CSV file.

my $dbh = DBI->connect ("dbi:CSV:", undef, undef, {
    f_dir                  => ".",      # Not needed, is default
    f_ext                  => ".csv/r", # advisable
    f_encoding             => "utf-8",  # probably needed

    csv_eol                => "\n",     # NOT needed!

    csv_allow_loose_quotes => 1,        # You /might/ need this
    csv_allow_whitespace   => 1,        # OR this

    RaiseError             => 1,        # Always a good option!
    PrintError             => 1,        # Also a good choice
    });

Look into the Text::CSV_XS documentation for what other csv_ options are allowed.

FWIW, I will release a new DBD::CSV later today.


Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
