Home: Perl Programming Help: DBI: Cannont call method "prepare" on an undefined value at /home/cgi-bin/post_to_db.cgi

Troy Novice Jul 15, 2002, 5:51 AM Post #1 of 5 (5851 views) Cannont call method "prepare" on an undefined value at /home/cgi-bin/post_to_db.cgi Can't Post Hi, I get this error when I try to run a CGI script from my browser. However when I run it from the command line I get the same error message but the actual database gets updated with the new data. This suggests that I am accessing the database correctly but I still can't figure out what is going wrong. Can someome help please, TIA, - Troy

Otherwise, we can guess that it is because the variable $framistan does not contain a Widget::Object instance. However, I do not believe in this case that will help much. Good Luck, Dennis $a="c323745335d3221214b364d545". "a362532582521254c3640504c3729". "2f493759214b3635554c3040606a0", print unpack"u*",pack "h*",$a,"\n\n";

Or as fishimpaur said, your object isn't created or you aren't using your statement/database handles properly.
