Hello all,

Need your help.

I can't install DBD-Mysql Module on Caldera OpenLinux v2.4. I installed successfully MySQL, Perl 5.6, DBD-Oracle and all other neccessary modules, but I have problems only with this one: Msql-Mysql-module

Could you please give me some tips?

You need to install zlib. If you don't have one in distributive (unlikely =), download it from here http://www.gzip.org/zlib/, compile and install, update linker cache and re-run perl Makefile.PL

Alternatively, you need to take the advice in point 1. of the error message. You will rarely benefit from this feature on modern networks. As a matter of fact, on many (most? all?) servers on 100 Mbit Ethernet LANs, you pay a penalty compressing and decompressing over the socket connection.

Benchmark and see.
