I'm sorry but I have tried to solved this on my own, but I'm unable to. I have a RH system and I installed the (at the time) most current stable mysql system 3.23.43-1 and have it up and running. The problem that I have is that I want to start working with Perl and MySQL, but don't know what I really need. The Powertools of RH6.2 had an rpm called mysql-perl-3.20.32a-3.i386.rpm which seems to match the mysql server, client, and shared versions that came on the powertools cd. I've tried to installed the mysql-perl-3.20.32a-3.i386.rpm but it fails wanting libmysqlclient.so.4 to be installed and I have libmysqlclient.so.10 installed with the 3.23.43 server, client, and shared rpms. I've been to rpmfind.org and have searched extensively for mysql-perl (which gives me the mysql-perl-3.20.32a-3.i386.rpm and that's about it), a search for mysql gives a bunch of files but I'm really not sure what I need having never used modules in perl before. I feel like an idiot here, but this is what I have:
RH 6.2 mysql 3.23.43-1 mysql-client-3.23.43-1 mysql-shared-3.23.43-1 mysql-devel-3.23.43-1 perl 5.6.1 installed from CPAN With this system what do I need to do to utilize Perl with MySQL? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
