Hi,
Try like this

$Self->{DBObject}->Prepare(
                    SQL => "SELECT count(ticket_id) FROM ticket_issue WHERE ticket_id = $TickID"
        );

Thanks,
Deepak

Do you have the DBD driver for MySQL installed? Also, can you run a script from teh command line that accesses the database? Can you run that specific cgi script from teh command line as the web server user?
