Good afternoon, I am having a problem inserting a line in to a mysql table. Actually the problem is that I can't get perl to give me an error. I am purposely trying to insert data for a non-existant column. So it should kcik back with an error - but it is not. It just not doing it and continuing with the script. It is just skipping over insert line like it didn't exist, even though I have raiseError on. I have traced the script and the only thing I can find is that the line where I am executing the insert says "<- execute= undef". Any ideas how to get this script to stop and give me an error? Here is the summarized code I am using: 
use DBI;
$dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:database=blah;host=127.0.0.1", "root", 
+"****", {'RaiseError' => 1});
DBI->trace(1);
$insertline = "INSERT INTO table (column1,column2) VALUES ('value1','v
+alue2');"#column2 does NOT exist in the table and should through back
+ an error
$query = $dbh ->prepare($insertline);
$query->execute();
