Hi, I am facing problem installing DBI in cygwin. Please see the steps I followed:
1. I am running Cygwin dll version 1.5.12.1.My Cygwin Perl version is 5.8.6. I have downloaded and installed mysql server version 4.0.23 on my Win XP m/c. Started the server and tested it successfully. I have downloaded and installed mysql-4.0.23a source from mysql.com and tested it. 2. Downloaded DBI-1.47.tar.gz and unpacked it to C:\cygwin 3. Got into DBI-1.47 directory and did perl Makefile.PL. I get the following error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: lib /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8 .) at DBI.pm line 254 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at DBI.pm line 254.
