Yes. (Assuming no errors).

My guess is that the SYBASE env . variable is not set for scripts
running as CGIs.

Either set it in the scripts:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

BEGIN {
$ENV{SYBASE} = '/where/sybase/is/installed';
}

use Sybase::CTlib;

etc...

Or set it directly for the Apache server, by putting this in Apache's
httpd.conf:

SetEnv SYBASE /where/sybase/is/installed

(obviously changing /where/sybase/is/installed to the actual path to
the Sybase installation!)
