Is there anyway to see the errors that the DBI:ODBC is generating when the application is being run from the server? Any ideas why the ODBC connect is failing?

$dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:$SERVER", $USER, $PASSWORD);

You can put catch errors like:

use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);

$dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:$SERVER", $USER, $PASSWORD) ||
   croak "Database connection failed: $DBI::errstr";

More generally, getting to know your server log is very important. I'm not sure where it is, but on *nix it is typically called error_log and is in the httpd directory (which could be in different places).
