PERL help

I have PERL code which will connect to Oracle DB . I am trying to execute a query using that connection ...

Code:
$cmd = "select distinct instance,status from gv\$thread where instance <> '$oracle_server'";
			
$sth = execquery_I( $dbproc, $cmd );


and I am getting this error :

Code:
DBD::Oracle::db::prepare(/opt/dba/perl-5.8.8/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux/DBD/Oracle.pm:262):
262:            DBD::Oracle::st::_prepare($sth, $statement, @attribs)
263:                or return undef;

148:                    $@ =~ /Can't locate object method "[^"]+" via package/)


but, if I execute the query on the DB ( through SQL* PLus) it's working fine.
any thoughts please .

Thanks

Hi,

Below are the steps for executing query through PERL.

Code:
my $db=DBI->connect("dbi:Oracle:servername",$id,$password) || die "cant connect\n";
my $select = "select * from tablename";
my $sth= $db->prepare($select);
$sth->execute();

while ( my @row = $sth->fetchrow_arrray() ) {
 print "@row \n";
}
$db->disconnect if defined ($db);
