Trying to Install Bundle::DBD::mysql
I'm trying to install this module on my powerbook. I did perl -MCPAN -e
'install Bundle::DBD::mysql' and was able to download this module and
have it go through the process. At the end, though, I got this:
Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)

Several tests failed because access was denied, for instance:
t/mysql2...Mysql connect('database=test;host=','',...) failed:
Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO) at
t/mysql2.t line 29
What else should I do to get this to run as should be?

The problem is that the self-tests are run by root, and root normally
requires a password to connect to mysql.
You have two options: The simplest is to grant [EMAIL PROTECTED] full
access to the "test" database, without requiring a password. In the
mysql shell:
mysql> grant all privileges on test.* to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.22 sec)
The second option is more complicated. You can start the CPAN shell
with 'perl -MCPAN -e shell', and use the 'look DBD::mysql' command from
there. That will download and unzip the latest module source, and open
up a sub-shell in the source directory. From there, you can run 'perl
Makefile.PL' using any of the options listed in INSTALL.html.
For example, to specify the database, user name and password to use,
you'd run 'Makefile.PL' like this:
perl Makefile.PL --testdb=test --testuser=somebody
--testpassword=blah

So it looks like I need to set up root to access Mysql - is that correct? No, it doesn't matter what user you use to grant the privileges. If 'mysqluser' is your normal admin user, just log in to the mysql shell as that user: mysql -u mysqluser -p For that matter, you could use phpMyAdmin to grant the privileges too. The important part is that the user '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' needs full access to the database 'test' - how you grant it that access is incidental. sherm-- Cocoa programming in Perl: http://camelbones.sourceforge.net Hire me!

To clarify, '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' is an account with the MySQL database. It has no relation at all to the system 'root' account on your computer. MySQL has its own set of accounts which generally have no connection to the ones on the system that the database server is running on. -- Chris Devers
