Alexander,
I don't think this is a perl/DBD problem. Is 'NAME_EN' defined as NOT NULL? If so, this will cause the error. What happens if you perform this in SQL*Plus with the same values?

Subject: DBD::Oracle and bind_param with empty strings
Hi!
I'm trying to insert rows containing empty strings into a table using
placeholders and bind_param.
According to my understanding of the DBI documentation, bind_param
should treat undef as null-values but null-values should be substituted
as empty strings.
However, I'm getting errors like below:
DBD::Oracle::st execute failed: ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into
("BERGOLTH"."ABTEILUNG"."NAME_EN") (DBD ERROR: OCIStmtExecute) [for
statement ``INSERT INTO abteilung (tid, name, name_en, kurzbez, fk_institut)
VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)'' with params: :p5='21', :p3='',
:p1='22', :p4='-----', :p2='E xx2 (keine)']) at ./import.pl line 89.
(p3 is '', not undef!)
Any hints?
