This is the same info I sent under another heading call something is going on
with perl.  Placing here as well to see if anyone knows what is going on.

Please see the original message entitled something is going on with perl for
Stefan's quandry with perl as well.

I replied under that subject with the following:

Hi, I am in a similar quandry!

Here is a message I wrote yesterday.

This was the reply I got...which I took to heart and did:

Well...now perl still won't do it since upgraded to perl/5.6.0
I don't know what to do now!
Here is what I get when I tried to do the same thing again after installing
5.6.0:

[fran@flp fran]$ su Password: [root@flp fran]# perl -e 'use DBD::mysql;';
[root@flp fran]# mysql -u root ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL
server
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) [root@flp fran]#       


This is the same error I was getting after successfully doing the
data-ShowTable
thingey...with previous version of perl, see below:

All tests successful.
Files=17,  Tests=128, 10 wallclock secs ( 5.12 cusr +  1.83 csys =  6.95

Any help on this would be helpful.  Note:  Mandrake site had the perl 5.6.0
but
did not have the perl base for the same version anywhere on the site.

I hope someone can help with this.  I am just trying to change from .CSV to
mysql for the database for Pronto! mail.  .CSV is too slow.  This has been a
nightmare so far for 4 days now.  I am at a loss as to what to do about this
incompatibility thing.

Thanks for anyhelp anyone can give on this.
