Currently this is a clean system. Any help is appreciated.
Make sure that the correct 'mysql_config' is in your path before running 'perl
Makefile.PL'
Ah!!! there in may lie a clue to the problem. II was not able to even FIND mysql_config. I tried copying my my.cnf file to mysql_config in the build directory. That didn't work. So I finally manually defined all the variables with commandline switches (as defined by 'perl Makefile.PL --help').
By the way, THANKS VERY MUCH for getting back to me. I had given up on this group!
