After extensive testing of various versions of DBI (up to 1.32) and DBD::ODBC (up to 1.02), here are our recommendations for versions to use with Sap-DB.
DBI: use version 1.25 Versions > 1.25 seem to work ok at first sight, but have shown random (memory overwrite?) crashes in CGI-scripts under some circumstances. DBD-ODBC: use version 0.38 We recommend to use a version < 0.42, as in 0.42 the ping() method was implemented differently, which significantly reduced Sap-DB's catalog cache hit rate. The more recent (1.x) versions of DBD-ODBC do not seem to pass the make tests! We have tested on Red Hat 7.2 and 7.3, with Sap-DB up to 7.3.0.29. Hope this saves somebody some headache!
