I just tried running a perl script that I wrote about a year ago. It had
worked for me in the past. Now it doesn't work. I can view data from a
table, but I am unable to either drop a table or create a table. I'm
running PostgreSQL 7.3.4 and DBI 1.35 along with Perl 5.8.1.

Here's my script for creating a table:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# createfoo.pl

use strict;
use DBI;

my $dbh = DBI->connect( 'dbi:Pg:dbname=test','dbuser','password',
                      {
                        RaiseError => 1,
                        AutoCommit => 0
                      }
                      ) || die "Database connection not made:
$DBI::errstr";

my $query = $dbh->prepare(
            "CREATE TABLE foo (foo_id INT4," .
            "foo_name TEXT)"
            );
$query->execute();
$dbh->disconnect();


Has anything changed to DBI? I haven't found anything on google
suggesting that it has.
