Get it here! Perl DBD::Sybase 1.09 for Active State Perl 5.10 on Windows XP/Vista/7 32bit

Assuming that you installed Sybase OpenClient 15.5 from the 15.5 PC Client:

Install ActiveState Perl from http://www.activestate.com (free) and install DBI if it isn’t already installed. It should be but you never know…

Now, the easy part. Install the DBD::Sybase 1.09 PPM:

That’s it :)

Most likely, that means that your Perl is not Active State Perl 5.10 on Windows XP/Vista/7 32bit . Look at the output of `perl -v`, and see whether it is Perl 5.10. For me, this outputs `This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 1 (v5.12.1) built for MSWin32-x +86-multi-thread Copyright 1987-2010, Larry Wall Perl may be copied only under the terms of either the Artistic License + or the GNU General Public License, which may be found in the Perl 5 source ki +t.
