Hello,
I sent out a message yesterday asking for guidance in installing the MySQL
driver module, because I got an error message indicating that files like
"libmysqlclient" cannot be found. Three people kindly responded and advised
me to install the MySQL client first, but the MySQL client had indeed
already been installed.
I have downloaded MySQL-Max to my Windows 98 machine and have run a custom
install which allowed me to include the benchmark files and libraries and
include files. I am running the cygwin unix shell overlay, and I have
installed the Perl DBI-1.16 and Data-ShowTable-3.3 modules. When I start to
install the Perl Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2216 module, I am told that a file
like "libmysqlclient" cannot be found. I have found in the opt and debug
directories (which were created by the MySQL client installation) files with
names similar to (but not the same as) the ones that the MySQL driver module
can't find. These directories contain libmysql.dll, libmysql.lib,
mysqlclient.lib, and zlib.lib.
Is there anyone who can help me address this problem?
Thanks in advance,
