Hello,

I install yesterday mySQL (v3.23.15) and all was fine and works correctly. I need to install two modules : Perl installation. It's necessary for me tu run CGI. (http://www.mysql.com/Manual_chapter/manual_toc.html#Perl_installation)

The two modules are : 1. http://www.mysql.com/Contrib/DBI-1.13.tar.gz (DBI module) 2. http://www.mysql.com/Contrib/Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2209.tar.gz

My version of Perl is > 5

For the first one (DBI Module) I do --- perl Makefile.PL answ = looks good answ2 = can't open DBI.pm I tried to change permission in DBI.pm ; to change the v. nothing to do !

For the second one (DBA module) I do --- perl Makefile.PL I answ choice 3 to choose mySQL and mSQL (and another time I choose 1 for only mySQL) Two next questions I anwered "no" 'cause I didn't understand what will be the consequence to erase two files AND... At the question "where is the include folder" I said /usr/local/mysql it works... At the question, "where is the lib folder"... I try to find about witch lib the install speaking ! I understand that looking for "libmysql*.a" and I find it in usr/local/lib/mysql/ but at this time it bugs the installer want to find usr/local/lib/ ! I decided (I don't why to cp directly files in the folder files... nothing to do !)

I'm disappointed ! I install mySQL in half an hour and easely and I took many hours with to little modules ! and it doesn't work !

Can U help me ? thanks a lot,

Joe
