|I'm having a terrible time porting a perl program from one server to 
|another.
|It all occurs when I try and make the database connection 
|(DBI:Sybase:hostname:Dbname). The server only spits back the following

|39. DBI 1.14-nothread dispatch trace level set to 4 -> DBI->connect( 
|DBI:Sybase:DBEDEV01_SYB:ementoring_geo_dev, databaseusername, ****) 
|Can't connect( DBI:Sybase:DBEDEV01_SYB:ementoring_geo_dev 
|databaseusername password), no database driver specified and DBI_DSN env 

this sounds like you either dont have the database driver installed or you
need to explicitly specify what is in the script. i dont know what the DBD
is for sybase, but are you sure it is installed? it appears that the module
is DBD::Sybase:
