i'm not familiar w/ DBI and MySQL, but I do use DBD::Sybase and those drivers are on the client. i guess you might need to install the necessary MySQL DBI modules on the web server. do a syntax check of your CGI script with "-c" before running your CGI program, and maybe print out the vars in %ENV assuming the syntax is fine. good luck
