It is basically looking for the DBI module. DBI is a database independent Perl interface to databases, much like ODBC in the M$ environment. It means that in the program you are trying to run there is a "use DBI;", but Perl can't find the source file DBI.pm in the list of directories. This probably means that DBI is not installed. You should be able to find it at search.cpan.org.
DBI by itself is usually not enough, because it is only the programming interface. You'll probably need a database specific driver as well. What type of database are you trying to access?
