yes i tried. login correct. table exist. for the data, look at the dump => itīs a table line out of the DB. the scriptline actually works:

mysql>insert into $table (version,filename,release_notes,rec_level,os_
+type) values ("1.0","1.txt","1.txt",3,4)\g
[download]

there is no succeeded message given from perl. only the dump comes out of it.

  my $sth = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO $table(version,filename,release
+_notes,rec_level,os_type) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?)");
  $sth->execute( "test","test","test",1,1);
[download]

$VAR1 = '    DBI::db=HASH(0x35bffc4) trace level set to 0x0/1 (DBI @ 0
+x0/0) in D
BI 1.616-ithread (pid 2144)
    <- prepare(\'INSERT INTO table_1(version,filename,release
_notes,rec_level,os_type) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?)\')= ( DBI::st=HASH(0x35ed6
+ec) ) [1 i

    <- execute(\'test\', \'test\', ...)= ( 1 ) [1 items] at sql.pl lin

    <- prepare(\'SELECT * FROM nl_firmware_recommendation\')= ( DBI::s

5d7bcc) ) [1 items] at sql.pl line 24
    <- execute= ( 2 ) [1 items] at sql.pl line 25
    !! ERROR: 2000 CLEARED by call to fetch method
    <- fetchrow_hashref= ( HASH(0x35f117c)16keys ) [1 items] row1 at s

this worked. but why $dbh->do is not able to do this?
and whats about:     !! ERROR: 2000 CLEARED by call to fetch method?
