Use ppm instead of make or nmake to install modules on Windows, assuming you're
using ActiveState Perl.
Typing 'ppm' by itself at a command prompt should give you the list of options.
Helps if the machine has a live internet connection.

Hi there,
I am trying to install DBI module on WinNT 4.0
I downloaded DBI module from couple of places and tried to install it but
it gave me same error.
When I say perl makefile.pl for DBI module it gives me following output:
***** You are using a perl with experimental threading enable
***** You should be aware that using multiple threads is untable
***** are should NOT be done in production environments
DBI thread mutex protection is enabled
Writing MAKEFILE for DBI
after that when I executed nmake it gave me following error:
cl -c -nologo -01 -MD -DNDEBUG -DWIN32 -D_CONSOLE -DNO_STRICT
-DHAVE_DES_FCRYPT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTENT ......
the name specified is not recognized as an internal or external command
NMAKE fatal error
Stop.
I think because of this DBI module I am not able to install MySql-Perl
module.
Is there any other module I should install?
Many thanks,
Shital Joshi
