I just downloaded and installed MySQL 3.23.53-win. The installation required DBI and DBD-mysql which I installed using PPM.
I'd like to test mysql, but everything I run is looking for perl56.dll and fails to load. DBI and DBD-mysql appear to be compiled/linked using Perl 5.6. All of my efforts are intended to be used with Apache 2.0.43 with PHP4, Perl 5.8, mod_perl-2, Apache::ASP and, for Win32, these all seem to install best with Perl 5.8 So far I've managed not to have to compile anything but mysql looks like it's going to be different. Can anyone tell me how to eliminate the need for perl56.dll and have mysql, dbi and dbd-mysql all use Perl 5.8? I'm seeing errors like these when I try to run mysql test files (I also get a popup dialog box in Win32 that indicates perl56.dll can't be found): C:\MySQL\bench>perl run-all-tests --log --comment "2x Pentium II 400mz, 256M, un der vmware" Can't load 'C:/Perl/site/lib/auto/DBI/DBI.dll' for module DBI: load_file:The spe cified module could not be found at C:/Perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at C:/Perl/site/lib/DBI.pm line 236 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/DBI.pm line 236.
