How to debug plugin getting into UNKNOWN state

I've developed a plugin (written in perl) checking the state of an oracle
database (calculating remaining space in tablespaces).

So far it did work fine on the command line and within nagios. Since
some time now it fails and displays the state UNKNOWN. Restarting
nagios sometimes helps and sometimes doesn't.

Here the email I get from nagios about this:

Markus

Service: Oracle Tablespaces
