If you are going to run via telnet, you need to often hard-code the paths into the 'use lib' statements. The reason is that there is no "environment" passed to the program when run by telnet.

What it's saying is DBSQL.pm can't find the config file (probably Links.pm) and you may need to hard-code the paths not use relative references.
