Home: Perl Programming Help: DBI: DBD-MySQL

Flexor Novice May 12, 2002, 5:26 AM Post #1 of 6 (5541 views) DBD-MySQL Can't Post I have been trying to install DBD-MySQL on my webserver, but somehow it can't find this module. I have installed DBI and DB_file with no problems. Does anyone know how to go about installing DBD-MySQL, since I really want to use Perl with MySQL.

I use the nmake tool in windows (grapped from a C++ CD-rom), but I keep getting compiling errors.. something with cl.exe. I put that file in my directory too, but still I can't get rid of all errors... Lot's of other modules (who also require compilation) work (and compile) correctly Yet Another Perl Programmer _________________________________ ~~> [url=http://www.codingdomain.com]www.codingdomain.com <~~ More then 3500 X-Forum [url=http://www.codingdomain.com/cgi-perl/downloads/x-forum]Downloads!
