True. But I have to add that I am new to mod_perl and Apache::DBI, so most of 
the help was related to checking that things really work as they should.

It turned out that Apache::DBI 0.94 worked right from the start, I was just not 
able to verify that until Perrin told me that 'disconnect (overloaded)' meant 
'disconnect (overrun)'.

Besides, if I can get a module to run, even if I need help to do so, I would 
not go so far as to call it completely useless.

Agreed.
