Apologies for the mails - CPAN::Reporter has been sending the reports for me when I did upgrades. You're right that the problem isn't with DBD::mysql as such, but with my MySQL setup. However, it's not really something wrong with my setup (IMO) - I think the errno 13 is permission denied - MySQL is set up correctly and working, but of course DBD::mysql's test scripts can't access it without providing a valid username and password. Do you think the test scripts should auto-skip the tests if it fails to connect to MySQL with a permission denied error? Cheers David Precious
