Home: Perl Programming Help: DBI: Perl-MySQL interface problem with GENE counter

Jonny_D New User Apr 19, 2013, 4:34 AM Post #1 of 3 (11845 views) Perl-MySQL interface problem with GENE counter Can't Post  Hi! First time poster. I'm extremely new to Perl / MySQL / Linux (Ubuntu), so there is every chance that I'm doing something ridiculous. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If i'm asking in the wrong place, sorry. I'm trying to install a sequence database using the installDBRNASEQ.pl script which is part of a large pipeline called GENE-counter (used to analyse transcriptomic data). I have set up a MySQL database, I can log in and out without any problems, but when I run the command below from the appropriate folder location (-n, -v, variables aren't important, -i is the input file location, -d is the mysql database, -f is required by the script itself) >perl installDBRNASEQ.pl -n Arabidopsis -v TAIR10 -i /home/jonny -d rnaseq -f I get the following error message: "DBI connect('rnaseq:;mysql_local_infile=1','',...) failed: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) at /usr/local/lib/perl/GENE-counter-v0.4.4/src/installRNASEQ/../commonRNASEQ/commonRNASEQ.pm line 321. Error: cannot connect to supplied database." I have tried propmting for a password using derivatives of: >perl installDBRNASEQ.pl -n Arabidopsis -v TAIR10 -i /home/jonny -d rnaseq -f -p I'm not sure I expect that to work however as I'm running everything through Perl here. I can run another terminal window, connect to the relevant MySQL database etc., but I don't know how to specify a password and connect to the database using the above command? Any thoughts /comments would be greatly appeciated. If anyone is willing to help I can post more info as needed. Jonny

Post it as an attachment. (This post was edited by FishMonger on Apr 19, 2013, 6:13 AM)

I think I've got to the root problem (in the last few minutes actually) which relates to a change in syntax from TYPE=MyISAM, to ENGINE=MyISAM in one of the associated Perl scripts which connects data to the mysql database. The latest MySQL update changed the syntax and I guess some Perl scripts must be lagging behind. That was painful... Jonny
