DBD::mysql install problem

am 11.12.2003 21:22:31 von brantzdr

Hey,

I've installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 3 with Mysql 4.0.
mysql is in /usr/local/mysql

I installed DBI (latest release) with no problem.

Tried installing DBD::mysql and 2 problems: something about line 174
not finding mysql_config.
and then something about perl. So, I did the following.
installed Perl 5.8.2
re-installed DBI
changed line 174 of Makefile.PL in DBD::mysql dir. to point to
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
ran perl Makefile.PL and that worked fine (at least I think it did).
ran make, make test, make install and it reports that many tests failed
but it seems to have installed?

Has anyone else run into this with RHEL AS 3?

Also, what is the best way to install DBD::mysql and do I still need
datadumper and showtable?

Thanks in advance,
Douglas

A majority of the tests - but I will try again and send the info.
Can I use force install DBD::mysql through CPAN? Is that a better way
to install?

I'm used to the older versions of DBD::mysql when it asked questions
like.
Where is your installations of mysql?
What database would you like to use?
What is the host?
etc... at least I thought it used to ask these type of questions.

Does this make sense? Does the new DBD::mysql not ask these?

Thanks,
Douglas
