I'm using Perl 5.8.3 (freshly built), 1.42 DBI and 2.9003 (or whatever the latest is) of mySQL DBD. I can do updates fine, but whenever I try to do a select (1st prepare, 2nd execute, 3rd fetch*) - the fetch always barfs and says:

Undefined subroutine &DBD::mysql::st::fetchrow_array at ./test.pl line
+ 23

Here's my code:

use strict;
use warnings;
use DBI;

our $bpsUser    = <snip>
our $bpsPwd    = <snip>
our $bpsHost    = <snip>
our $bpsConn    = "";


$bpsConn    = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:database=BPS;host=$bpsHost",
                       $bpsUser, $bpsPwd, {'RaiseError' => 1});


our $query        =
        "SELECT timestamp FROM STATS ORDER BY timestamp ASC LIMIT 1";
our $result        = $bpsConn->prepare($query);
print $result->execute() . "\n";
our @ary        = $result->fetchrow_array();

This is textbook simple - every DBI tutorial I've seen has given this kind of example. This was working great on 5.8.0 and DBI 1.32 and an earlier mysql driver. I am at a total loss to explain why this is not working now.

If I print out $result - I see that it is a DBI:st HASH - which is what it should be.

UPDATE:

I just re-installed 5.8.0 and installed DBI 1.42 and the latest MySQL driver - and now it works. Grrrrr.....
