[obs-dev]If the install-db.pl script dies...

[Dan Amarel]

Hello Obs! Just tried to install Obsequiem this afternoon. It looks brilliant, and I'd very much like to evaluate it for use in context of a composers web... but am fairly stuck on the install-db.pl phase... :-/ Here's how install-db.pl is exiting: Installing perl modules: ok. Checking to see if server is alive: ok Checking to see if database obs exists: ok Checking to see if user obs exists: ok Now creating tables: install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so' for module DBD::mysql: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: undefined symbol: uncompress at /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 169.  at (eval 1) line 3  at ./CreateTables.pl line 95 Failed to create tables. [root /home/amarel/obs]# An empty 'obs' db was created, btw. Afterwards, I tried to give a leg up by creating a MySQL user obs@localhost, and granting obs@localhost all privileges on the obs db; but that doesn't seem to help. Did use the latest obs CVS update, btw. My coding experience has been thus far pretty much limited to Java- I don't have a clue about Perl DBI-; but I guess this looks like I might not have the DBI set up properly? Much appreciate any help getting Obsequiem up and running! -Dan Amarel
