Can you telnet or SSH into your server? Do they have the CPAN module
installed? If the answers to those 2 questions are yes, try
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::DBI'
I don't *think* this module is of the pure perl variety, so my suspicion is
that it has to be installed by whoever is root. If your web host won't do
that, you may have to look at other alternatives.
There may be information in the DBI FAQ also.

Subject: DBI in CGI's
I need to access a database run by my service provider. They provide
the database administration tools via the web, and Perl is available for
CGI's (which I've abused abundantly), but if I so much as say
use DBI;
I get an internal server error. Is there anyway that I can sort of hack
my way around this and still use the DBI even if it's not available on
the server? Where can I get the MySQL drivers?
