I've been trying to get the msql-mysql-modules compiled and installed on
my Win98 machine for a couple weeks without much luck.
I tried using the latest version of perl 5.6 from active state but ran
into nothing but problems. Basically running perl Makefile.PL for
Data::ShowTable (a required module) failed because the version of perl
couldn't be determined - even after reinstalling.
I finally reverted back the a previous version of perl (Gurusamy
Sarathy's version 5.004_02) and was able to get Data::ShowTable and DBI
installed but now when I run perl Makefile.PL for Msql-Mysql-modules I
receive these errors:
Note (probably harmless): No library found for 'm.lib'
Usage: xsubpp [-v] [-C++] [-except] [-prototypes] [-noversioncheck]
[-nolinenumb
ers] [-s pattern] [-typemap typemap]... file.xs
Writing Makefile for DBD::mysql
Writing Makefile for Msql-Mysql-modules
My questions are:
1. Is there a binary version of *just* DBI,Msql-Mysql-modules for
Win32?
2. If not, is there a PPM of the above for Activestate's perl 5.6 for
Win32 (I did a search for DBD::mysql but it failed)?
TIA,
Erich
