The lack of error message feels like what happens when you call lo_*
functions outside of a transaction. IIRC you just get 0 as the resulting
oid to a lo_import, for instance.
You could try adding $dbh->do("select 1") just after $dbh->{AutoCommit}=0
to ensure that a transaction is started before the lo_import.
Also, your code snippet runs fine for me, unmodified, with DBD::Pg 1.21
Are you running an older version?
