hrm, sorry.... I meant to say the library/dev/include files for MySQL itself (the Server/Client).

Be sure to have the library/dev /include files installed and specify the diretory they are in in the MakeFile.pl or whatever it uses. You may have to install manually after getting the package from CPAN.

I'm trying to use DBI to connect to our mysql database, but according to the error messages DBI module wasn't installed. So I used CPAN to install it and ended up recompiling perl etc. To cut long story short, even after installing DBI i got error messages like: "install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't locate DBD/mysql.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux/ /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl . /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux/) at (eval 1) line 3. Perhaps the DBD::mysql perl module hasn't been fully installed, or perhaps the capitalisation of 'mysql' isn't right. Available drivers: ExampleP, Proxy." I tired to install DBD::mysql on it's own via CPAN shell, but something seemed to go wrong: "In file included from dbdimp.c:29: dbdimp.h:31:49: mysql.h: No such file or directory dbdimp.h:32:49: errmsg.h: No such file or directory make: *** [dbdimp.o] Error 1 /usr/bin/make -- NOT OK Running make test Oops, make had returned bad status Running make install Oops, make had returned bad status Warning: Cannot install configure, don't know what it is. " Does anyone have any pointers on how to get out of this mess? Much appreciated!
