I repeat again and again and again. You are using ActiveState Perl, which comes with the PPM utility. Use it to install the binaries, and you won't have to compile anything.

DBI thread mutex protection is enabled *** Note: The optional PlRPC-modules (RPC::PlServer etc) are not installed. If you want to use the DBD::Proxy driver and DBI::ProxyServer modules, then you'll need to install the RPC::PlServer, RPC::PlClient, Storable and Net::Daemon modules. The CPAN Bundle::DBI may help you. You can install them any time after installing the DBI. You do *not* need these modules for typical DBI usage. Optional modules are available from any CPAN mirror, in particular http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-module <http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-module> http://www.perl.org/CPAN/modules/by-module <http://www.perl.org/CPAN/modules/by-module> ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/modules/by-module <ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/modules/by-module> Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Remember to actually *read* the README file! Use 'make' to build the software (dmake or nmake on Windows). Then 'make test' to execute self tests. Then 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this working directory before unpacking and building any DBD::* drivers. Windows users need to use the correct make command. That may be nmake or dmake depending on which Perl you are using. If using the Win32 ActiveState build then it is recommended that you use the ppm utility to fetch and install a prebuilt DBI instead.
