DBD::mysql 2.9004 connect issues.

Hello,

I'm facing some extremely bizarre behavior on my SuSE 9.2 i586 box that
I'm completely stumped by. Hopefully someone can help.

Installed MySQL & all dependent packages via YAST (SuSE's package
management system).

Compiled & installed perl 5.8.6 manually (stupid SuSE threaded version).

Installed DBI no problem.

Installed DBD::mysql w/ no major issues - a few complaints in the tests,
but nothing that seemed bad.

When I try and connect to the DB, I get the following error:

peter@linux:~/dev/nextgen> ./test.pl
Had to create ::imp_data_size unexpectedly at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/i686-linux/DBI.pm line 1165.
Segmentation fault



test.pl as follows:


#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use DBI;

my $dsn = "DBI:mysql:database=test";

# connect to the defined database
my $DBH = DBI->connect($dsn, 'root', '');



Help much apprciated!

thanks,

--pete

re: DBD::mysql 2.9004 connect issues.

Never mind.

Going through the reinstallation of the SuSE perl RPMs, and then
installing the new perl from source seems to have fixed everything.
