mysql installation problems (RPM errors)

2003-08-26 Thread Gale Stafford
Hey Folks

Hi there! My first post to the list ...

I am installing mysql 4.0.1-2 on a Redhat 8.0 workalike. I've installed the MySQL 
server software, client software, but when I try to install the MySQL-bench...rpm, I 
get the failed dependencies error, MySQL-DBI-perl-bin is needed.

I did a search and found Mysql-DBI-perl-bin-1.1825-1.i386.rpm, and I installed it. But 
when I rpm -install the MySQL-bench...rpm package I still get a failed dependencies 
error. Is this a problem caused by Mysql-DBI-perl...rpm) not having capitals in all 
the right places?

I dont understand enough about how rpm works, to troubleshoot this! Can anyone help 
point me to the right MySQL-DBI-perl...rpm file?

thanks,
Gale

First off to maybe make this easy on you, you do not need the 
MySQL-bench rpm if you do not plan on using the benchmarking tools. It 
is an optional install.
Otherwise, I do not think rpm cares about capitalization. I believe this 
problem is discussed in the MySQL manual, and might have the solution, 
but then I am sure others on this list can help out. Most important 
thing to remember, is that you don't need benchmarking to run the MySQL 
server. In the past, I always used a tarball of the perl DBI and it 
worked fine.
