Hi,
The problem has been solved. It was a permission issue in the
/usr/opt/perl5 directories. Thanks again for your help.

The most obvious ones are:
- Environment -- are you sure you are running the same
perl in both accounts?
Path differences, etc, could cause issues. I've seen this where
/usr/bin/perl is in a
path first, and /usr/local/bin/perl is the newly installed perl for some
accounts. Each
will look in their own lib paths for modules (one may be 5.8.0 and the
other something
different or may be 5.8.0 with threading enabled, etc). Use "which perl"
in each account
to ensure they are running the same perl, along with perl -v or perl -V.
- Permissions -- ensure you have permissions in the
non-root account to open
files/paths in the perl lib tree, etc.
- Incorrect installation of DBI. One common mistake is
that people copy DBI.pm to
various locations instead of "make install"
