Problem installing DBD::mysql on Red Hat Linux 7.2
Problem installing DBD::mysql on Red Hat Linux 7.2
am 09.06.2004 12:54:00 von Ben Burford
Hello All,
I am trying to install DBD::mysql on a Red Hat Linux 7.2 installation. I di
d not request any mysql modules to be installed during the installation of R
ed Hat Linux 7.2.
I installed MySQL-3.23.58-1.i386.rpm and MySQL-client-3.23.58-1.i386.rpm suc
cessfully. I started the server and was able to execute a few basic command
s and to set the passwords.
I downloaded DBD-mysql-2.1017.tar.gz from CPAN (http://www.cpan.org/modules/
by-module/DBD/), 2.1017 is the version I need for my purposes. I untarred D
BD-mysql-2.1017.tar.gz and (following the instructions in INSTALL.html) did a:
perl Makefile.PL
I got the following results:
------------------------------------------------------------ ---
# perl Makefile.PL
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 169.
readline() on closed filehandle main::PIPE at Makefile.PL line 171.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 169.
readline() on closed filehandle main::PIPE at Makefile.PL line 171.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 169.
readline() on closed filehandle main::PIPE at Makefile.PL line 171.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 169.
readline() on closed filehandle main::PIPE at Makefile.PL line 171.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 169.
readline() on closed filehandle main::PIPE at Makefile.PL line 171.
Failed to determine directory of mysql.h. Use
perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-I
to set this directory. For details see the INSTALL.html file,
section "C Compiler flags" or type
perl Makefile.PL --help
------------------------------------------------------------ ---
I did a find on my machine for mysql_config and for mysql.h and do not have
either of these files on my machine.
In the INSTALL.html file under Configuration, libs, its says:
"If a switch is not present on the command line, then the script mysql_confi
g will be executed. This script comes as part of the MySQL distribution."
So my question is, what "MySQL distribution" do I need to install to get mys
ql_config and mysql.h (and where do I get the distribution)?
Any other comments related to my error message and my problem would be great
ly appreciated. I'm a beginner at this so please make your answers detailed
enough that I can follow them clearly (without assuming that I will underst
and).
Thank you,
Ben

You'll need at least MySQL-devel and most probably zlib-devel,
libz-devel or however it's called, as well.

Thank you Jochen,
I have MySQL-devel on the Red Hat Linux distribution disks. Where do I find
libz-devel?
