Rudy,

It worked.

It executed 'make' and then 'make test' with all tests ok and one test skipped (the t/60leaks one). 'make install' also went ok.

About 'make test': - did it really connect to MySQL to execute the tests ? - or is it just an internal test ? - If it did not connect to the database server, is there any quick way to test this comunication ? maybe a sample script...?

Once again thanks for the quick help.

2 - then I executed "perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBD::mysql'". I was able to get through the initial configuration and finally it started downloading the DBD. It was correctly unpacked but somtehing bad hapened after (something which I have seen before because before I downloaded de DBD 'by hand' and tried installing it and the same hapened). So here is:

a) I get lots of lines equal to this one:

---------- "Unsuccessfull stat on filename containing newline at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm";

------------

That is a problem with perl 5.8.0 & redhat 9. This should get you through it:

LANG="" perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBD::mysql'

or you can 'unset LANG' or 'export LANG=""' &c.
