Hi (I should say good night: it's pretty late here in france ;-)

Concerning the installation of the Sybase Driver for Linux, I forgot to
reinstall freetds 4.7 after having compiled it (it's a shame, I know, but
I'm tired...).

The script is the following (not the one included in the last mail)
============================================================================
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use DBI;
BEGIN {
  $ENV{SYBASE} = '/usr/local/freetds';
  $ENV{DSQUERY} = 'global';
}
print "1\n";
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:", sa, 'sa.droit');
print "2\n";

1;
============================================================================

resulting in the following error:

============================================================================
1

Command terminated
============================================================================

which, in fact, is the same in appearence as the previous one. Let me told you
that I got a encouraging message by typing 'perl main.t' in the directory
'DBD-Sybase-0.21/t':

============================================================================
> perl main.t                                     <for ../PWD bad set>

Am I close to establish the right connection?
