Probably don't have dbi installed:-) Go to command prompt and make sure you have an active internet connection...
Type... ppm install http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/DBI.ppd Will install the latest DBI, then you can try again. Ilya -----Original Message----- From: Rob Duncan To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 5/22/02 6:18 AM Subject: Win2K DBI Install Problem I am trying to install Edatanew to operate with my newly installed, but functioning MySQL. When I rune the Edatanew install cgi, (in my case, raventures_mdm143a.cgi) I get the following error.... Software error: [Tue May 21 18:15:23 2002] DBI.pm: [Tue May 21 18:15:23 2002] DBI.pm: [Tue May 21 18:15:23 2002] DBI.pm: Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib C:/Perl/site/lib .) at C:/Perl/lib/DBI.pm line 223 [Tue May 21 18:15:23 2002] DBI.pm: [Tue May 21 18:15:23 2002] DBI.pm: BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/lib/DBI.pm line 223.

In the cgi line 66 there is.... 66 use DBI; .....and in my DBI.pm we find.... 212 $DBI::dbi_debug = $ENV{DBI_TRACE} || $ENV{PERL_DBI_DEBUG} || 0; 213 214 # If you get an error here like "Can't find loadable object ..." 215 # then you haven't installed the DBI correctly.

I am a newbie in these matters and any detailed help would be appreciated. I can not find the aforementioned README file, but have spent a few hours looking at the dbi.perl.org site, FAQ, etc.
