There can be several reasons for this problem.

1. A version of OpenClient on the machine different from the one used
to build sybperl.
2. Using DBlib to load data via bcp to a DOL table (row-level locked table)
3. Using a Sybase::DBlib binary that was built for a different version of perl.

In addition, you need to call 

BCP_SETL(TRUE);

as the very first command (before creating the connection) so that BCP
functionality is enabled.
