I have just installed the following versions of the above software on a Solaris machine: apache 1.3.9 mod_perl 1.21 DBI 1.13 Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2207 Afterwards my database Perlscripts were not able to run. They produce the following in the server logfile and I don't understand the problem! Without mod_perl under apache or in a shell there is no problem. The script works fine and is also included in this mail! Thanks for your help!!! DBD::mysql::st execute failed: ase Selected at /users/grupp/public_html/test.pl line 12.
