I did the install via CPAN, and I found that I DID have 2 versions
installed. I also found that the permissions that the modules and
subsequent directories had were not allowing anyone but ROOT to see the
modules.

So after renaming the old DBI.pm files to .old and changing the
permissions so that my non-root user could see the module, everything
worked fine.

The 2 questions that this brings  up is :
1. Why does CPAN only make the module directories accessible only by root
? (permissions set to 700 )
2. Why doesn't CPAN overwrite or remove the older version of DBI when the
new version is installed?

How did you do the upgrade?

It looks like you have remnants of the old version still installed.
