No it only catches if it's an error, like a bad call, but not being able to
connect is not an error unless the underlying DB driver throws one so you
must specifically check the $dbh.
Also some code would be helpful.
$dbh->do($sql);
The above just doesn't help us to help you.
Are you sure you are not declaring $dbh with my somewhere and then calling
do outside of scope?

I have RaiseError => 1 shouldn't that catch an error on the connect?
I also printed the value of $dbh to the screen which was
DBI::db=HASH(0x816ec6c)
