Hi I am calling a stored procedure from my perl program and getting the value from the database. while compiling, it says wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'PROC_BY_SERIAL_NO'. i don't know what would be the problem. Could anyone help me to solve it..... I have written the code and the error below. perl code: 

#!/usr/bin/perl5 
use strict; 
use DBI; 
use DBD::Oracle; 
my $Sno = "232323277"; 
my $appname = "drf-120"; 
my $max = 12; 
my $maxs = 120; 
my $warra =""; 
my $return = ""; 
my $dbh; 
my $csr; 
$ENV{'ORACLE_HOME'} = "/oracle/product/current"; 

$dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Oracle:sdfr','wert23','ratyou') 
or die "Unable to connect: $DBI::errstr"; 
$dbh->{RaiseError} = 1; 
$csr = $dbh->prepare(q{ 
BEGIN 
proc_by_serial_no( 
:serial_number, 
:app_name, 
:max_time, 
:max_size, 
:warranty_tbl, 
:return_status 
); 
END; 
}); 

# The values are _copied_ here 
$csr->bind_param(":serial_number", $Sno); 
$csr->bind_param(":app_name", $appname); 
$csr->bind_param(":max_time", $max); 
$csr->bind_param(":max_size", $maxs); 
$csr->bind_param_inout(":warranty_tbl", \$warra, -10); 
$csr->bind_param_inout(":return_status", \$return, 100); 


$csr->execute or die "exec-error $csr->errstr\n"; 
$csr->finish; 


print $Sno, "\n"; 

print $appname, "\n"; 

print $return, "\n"; 


$dbh->disconnect;
