Good day, 

I've built perl 5.6.1 on Tru64 then built DBI and DBD as per the
instructions.  When I try to run perl I get 

DBD::mSQL initialisation failed: Can't locate object method "driver" via
package "DBD::mSQL" (perhaps you forgot to load "DBD::mSQL"?) at
/usr/local/gnu/packages/perl-5.6.1-db/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/alpha-dec_osf/DBI.pm
line 619.

Perhaps the capitalisation of DBD 'mSQL' isn't right. at
../hughes-test.pl line 8

-----------------------------------
I suspect that either the modules didn't fully install or I'm missing
something in my path.  I appreciate your help.  Thanks.

Specific versions are:

c compiler use to build perl: 
# cc -V
Compaq C V6.3-027 on Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1A (Rev. 1885)
Compiler Driver V6.3-026 (sys) cc Driver

Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2219
DBI-1.28

The perl version shows:

I tried to attach files showing the perl build but the mail gets bounced
saying that my message is too long.  If you need those files, send me an
email address to which I can send them.

A sample code and it's full output follows:
