Because it's not part of MySQL. It's part of DBD::mysql, the MySQL-specific driver for the DBI module. Since you say you're not getting anywhere, but do not specify what you've tried, all we can say is follow the directions you've already been given. That is, use ppm to install the DBD::mysql module. Invoke the ppm program, then run this command: install DBD::mysql >Thanks, > >Jerry > >David Lloyd wrote: > >> Gerald, >> >> > Now I am getting the following: >> > >> > install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't locate DBD/mysql.pm in @INC >>contains; C:/Perl/lib C:/Perlsite/lib .) at (eval 1) >> > line 3; >> > >> > I can't mysql.pm on my PC.
