Hey all! I'm having a really weird problem with mod_perl where is 
dies loading modules from a certain dir in startup.pl

I'm running Red Hat Linux 6.2 with: Embedded Perl version 5.00503 for 
Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) (Red Hat/Linux) mod_perl/1.21

I set up a startup.pl file to pre-load the usual list of modules such 
as  CGI and CGI:Carp. Everything works fine, and I can see the 
modules loaded successfully in /perl-status . Hoever when I add

use DBI  ();

the server dies during start-up with no errors.

What I discovered which is weird is that if I try to load any module 
from the same directory DBI.pm is in (e.g. MD5.pm),  which is 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux, the same thing happens. 
Loading modules from any other directory including paths I added 
myself load fine.

According to /perl-status, /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux 
is in @INC.

Can anyone recommend some troubleshooting procedures? Or is there 
anyone who's had the same weird problem?

Thanks!
