Except that mysql header files have nothing to with compiling DBI. You're thinking about DBD::mysql. Good point. I just assumed that we were talking about mysql here. I suggest bypassing CPAN and running make manually. Use CPAN as shortcut to get that directory though: $ sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'shell' (or just sudo cpan) cpan> look DBI DBI-1.59$ perl Makefile.PL DBI-1.59$ make DBI-1.59$ exit When you run the 'make' command you will get some output that should explain what the problem is. The way described above is the right way to go - it is the logical next step. Jeremiah
