I have a perl cgi script that  needs to access a database using
Sybase::DBlib.

The CGI bit is working - am able to display text, forms etc correctly, but
when try to connect to the database it fails to connect.  Oddly the same db
connection script works in a different script - and the db connection even
works if run from the unix command line.

    use Sybase::DBlib;

    my $user = "xxxt";
    my $pwd = "yyy";
    my $server = "zzz";
    my $dbh;

    if ($dbh = new Sybase::DBlib $user, $pwd, $server) {
        print "<p>Server: $server </p>\n";
        $dbh->dbuse("kplus");
    } else {
        print  "<p>Couldn't connect to $server </p>";
        return -1;
    }

This displays the server connection when run from the command line, but the
"Couldn't connect.." when run via the browser...

The web server is Apache running on Solaris if that makes any difference.

Any suggestions gratefully received.
