The "DBD-ODBC.ppd" from ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI/. comes with an
empty "codebase href" entry. You need to edit in the *.tar.gz file
location thus:
<CODEBASE HREF="DBD-ODBC.tar.gz" />
then from the DOS Prompt in the directory where the *.ppd and *.tar.gz
files are located type:
ppm remove DBD-ODBC.ppd
to remove any existing DBD-ODBC module, then type:
ppm install DBD-ODBC.ppd
