It took us a while to whittle this down into a small test case; however,
the fruits of labour seem to have paid off:
% perl -MDBI -e 'my $dbh =
DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:server=MYSERVER","janedoe","janepass"); my
$arr_ref = $dbh->selectall_arrayref("execute sp_who"); print
@{$arr_ref->[0]},"\n";
Can't locate object method "DELETE" via package "DBI::st" at -e line 1.
%
The problem only seems to occur executing stored procedures ... notice a
"select" is fine:
% perl -MDBI -e 'my $dbh =
DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:server=MYSERVER","janedoe","janepass"); my
$arr_ref = $dbh->selectall_arrayref("select 1"); print
@{$arr_ref->[0]},"\n";
1

The error with this small test case is different than the original
problem report ... but I'm hoping it uncovers whatever the underlying
problem is. David

Thanks for the report David.
I believe clear_cache() is only called on an 'inner' handle, which is
not tied. So I can't see why you'd get this error. (Or why the error
would say "Undefined subroutine" and not "Can't find method".)
To be able to look into this I'll need a very small test case that uses
as
few modules as possible. Ideally just DBI + DBD::Sybase +
DBIx::ContextualFetch.
Tim.
