What versions are you using?

The versions I'm using are a bit old.

DBD::Pg 1.22 (3 versions old)
Postgresql 7.3.4

Schema+data:
create table test3 (a integer, b text);
insert into test3 (a,b) values (1,'a');
insert into test3 (a,b) values (2,'b');
insert into test3 (a,b) values (3,'c');
insert into test3 (a,b) values (4,'d');

code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use strict;
use DBI();
my ($DBNAME,$DBUSER,$DBPASS)=('DB','user','pass');
my $dbh = DBI->connect('DBI:Pg(AutoCommit =>
0):dbname='.$DBNAME,$DBUSER,$DBPASS
);
dbdo("update test3 set a=1-? where a=4","error testing",-1);
$dbh->commit;
$dbh->disconnect();
exit 0;
sub dbdo {
my $SQL=shift||'';
# dolog('DEBUG',$SQL);
my $errmsg=shift||'Unable to run database query!';
my $sth=$dbh->prepare($SQL) or die($errmsg.'|'.$DBI::errstr);
# dolog('DEBUG','prepared');
my $rv='';
$rv=$sth->execute(@_) or die($errmsg.'|'.$DBI::errstr);
# dolog('DEBUG','executed');
return ($sth,$rv);
}
