Are you using ActiveState perl, if not you might want to use that instead of
custom compiled version. www.activestate.com If you are using ActivePerl
use PPM to install a binary version of DBD::Mysql.
VC++ does have a link.exe, unless you are talking about a different
compiler.

Subject: Cannot install DBD::mysql
On Win2k I did install perl (V. 5.6.0), DBI(1.18). So far ok.
But trying to install DBD::mysql (Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2216) let me run
into
errors:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
link -out:..\blib\arch\auto\DBD\mysql\mysql.dll -dll -nologo
[...]
LINK : warning LNK4044: Nicht erkannte Option "LC:/mysql/lib"; ignoriert
Link does not recognize the -L option. -L tells link where to find the
mysql
lib files are.
mysqlclient.lib(my_compress.obj) : error LNK2001: Nichtaufgeloestes
externes Symbol _compress
Here it cant find mysqlclient.lib.
What version of perl are u using and what c compiler?
I remember that the link program on windows is lc not link.
Maarten.
