dbd-mysql permission denied

bennY has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello, i have a strange problem with spamassassin related to the Perl SQL Module. Everything worked like a charm until i decided to install a new Perl Module which was required for an additional spamassassin module.. and now i'm getting this when running spamassassin in debug mode:

Jun  2 13:03:41.779 [2653] warn: config: failed to load user (xxx@xxx.

I installed the required Perl Module with these commands:

cpan
cpan App::cpanminus
cpanm Mail::DKIM
[download]

Any Idea what happened ? The System is Debian Jessie (64Bit) Thank you! Greetings bennY

Start by verifying that the library-file exists, and that it is accessible for `r-x` access by the world. Then, be sure that you have run the `/sbin/ldconfig` command, which will require Root privileges, to update the loader’s library lookup cache.
