Maybe you can help ;-) I'm having bad problems being that I am a newbie...Put it this way - we have a SysAdmin that is CCNA/CCDA/CCNP certified, but he wants me to learn how to do this on my own....Here's what I need: Someone on the dbi-users list yesterday told me to use CPAN and first install Bundle:CPAN.....which I did....now I have 2 versions of Perl running??? Perl 5 and Perl 5.6.1....If I had know it would do this, I wouldn't have install it...our original Perl should be running out of /usr/bin/perl (which it is)....but now the new version is running in /usr/local/bin/perl.... In order to run CPAN, I had to be the root superuser (which probably messed up my permissions also) First Question - How do I move the 5.6 version into /usr/bin/perl or just get rid of it completely and keep the one we had running!?!? Once I did that, they told me to install bundle:DBI...As far as I know this went smoothly, unless the permissions are messed up... After that and where I am stuck now is trying to install DBD::Pg and being that I have to be root, it won't let me.... Second Question - How do I get rid of all this stuff and start from scratch with someone walking me through the process? All I need is DBD and DBI::Pg installed...I don't need the CPAN stuff (although it does make it easier, except for being different users which I don't know how to do) So many people offering different methods of doing this is stressful and hectic.... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jesus Aneiros" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "N@ta$" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2001 4:44 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] DBD and DBI::Pg Hi, exactly what do you need to do?
