The fundamental issue before you do anything else is to get error
messages.  I mentioned in a previous post where you can usually see
them.

I don't know how experienced you are writing Perl code, but when writing
command-line scripts you quickly get used to seeing compilation errors
and other annoyances show up on the screen as you test the program
repeatedly.  This helps you get to the bottom of the problem quickly.

In the cgi world you have to mimic that environment as closely as
possible by tracking the error log.  You must get to the error messages
coming out or you have almost no hope of finding what the problem is.

Is your environment Unix/Linux or Windows?

Can you try this:  tail -f /var/log/httpd/error_log

If you can do that then you can see what comes out in the error log as
you run your script.

If you cannot, then nobody here can help you.  This is a DBI mailing
list, and your messages so far haven't established that there is any
problem with DBI.

You *must* trace the error log.
