Hi, I'm trying to re-install Apache::DBI on Debian. (Perl 5.8.0). I'm upgrading from mysql 3.23.52 to 4.0.13, and it was suggested that I re-install all of the DBI related Perl modules.
Apache::DBI Test 5 is failing. I found a prior post (from Ask Bjoern Hansen) on this list back in April saying that this test 5 failure would be resolved in a subsequent release of DBI. It was because DBI v1.33 or later was in use. I'm re-installing Apache-DBI-0.92/ and DBI-1.38/ using a "force install" command on CPAN. The failing install is: Running make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/10mysql....NOK 5# Failed test (t/10mysql.t at line 35) # got: '3' # expected: '4' t/10mysql....ok 7/7# Looks like you failed 1 tests of 7. t/10mysql....dubious Test returned status 1 (wstat 256, 0x100) The DBI interface appears to be working, but considering the previous post said that this should have been fixed, I don't want to repeat the install on my production system without knowing for sure. Can I ignore this failing test? Thanks, George
