I'll take a look at it and test the results and report back to you on what's 
apparently going on here. 

Everything installed on my system perl-wise is either part of the redhat 8 
distribution, or has been installed/updated via CPAN. so, CPAN should 
technically know about all the modules currently installed. I don't suppose 
you could provide a list of which modules inside found that modulereport 
didn't, on your system? 

Thanks for the heads-up. I'll let you know what I can find out.

Oh? Such as? This method is similar to ones used as example material (but 
expanded upon) in CPAN.pm. I'd be surprised that it doesn't find all the 
installed modules. Perhaps this is a bug in CPAN.pm ? 

Do you have a URL for this script ? I'd like to see what it does and how. 
You say it's on CPAN? If so I can probably find it.

OK.

The other thing is, Tom Phoenix's script (not module), inside, from

Yes, unfortunately there's no default $ENV{TEMP} on unix.. 

I've been considering using File::Temp, File::MkTemp, or IO::File instead, 
but just haven't gotten around to futzing with it. :-)

File::Spec would be the most portable way to specify the directory path, but 
that's as far as I've gotten. Originally I ported this from the MacPerl 
version I started playing with the idea on, and then added the unix /tmp 
conventions to make certain things easier for myself.

Two ways. Start with the DBI provided by Red Hat.

(rpm -qa |grep perl)

You will need the following:

perl-5.8.0-55
perl-DBD-MySQL-2.1017-3
perl-DBI-1.30-1

You could also add:

perl-DB_File-1.804-55

...if you were interested in working with DB_File type databases as well.

I'd also recommend installing:

perl-CPAN-1.61-55

...as then you can upgrade the installed modules to more recent counterparts

install all of the above with the following

(up2date -i perl-DBD-MySQL perl-DBI perl-DB_File perl-CPAN)

{
Additionally I'd recommend making sure you have all the mysql stuff
installed.. 

(rpm -qa |grep -i mysql) should yield at least the following: 
mysql-3.23.54a-4
mysql-devel-3.23.54a-4
mysql-server-3.23.54a-4
}

With CPAN installed, then you can do simple things like

#> perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> m DBI
{results}
cpan> install DBI
{many results} 
cpan> m DBD::mysql
{results}
cpan> install DBD::mysql
{many results} 
cpan> 

etc

I've written a very nice module-reporting script that helps me to stay on 
top of installed modules and easily see when they require updates from CPAN 
for bugfixes. 

http://www.webdragon.net/mr/

perldoc CPAN for more info on the CPAN shell.

Hi,

I got a brand new RS/6000 machine, I just installed the AIX 5.1,
and the two packages  perl 5.6.1 and MySQL, both are
from AIX Toolbox.

Now I need to install the DBI so I can use Perl to access the MySQL

http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-category/07_Database_Interfaces/DBI

and following the instructions in the README file
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

Then tried to access the MySQL by using a perl script which
runs in the other AIX machine without any problem.
I got the following errors after run:
install_driver(mysql) failed: Cant locate DBD/mysql.pm in @INC...
isstall_driver(mysql) failed: Cant locate loadable object for module
DBD_mysql in @INC

It seems the DBD cant recognize the MySQL.
There is no file related with mysql in the directory .../DBD/
Could you tell me what procedure I missed? How to relate the DBD
with mysql?

Thanks.

RE: How to install DBI in Windows 2000

You should first have Perl installed (ActivePerl) preferably.  Then use the
ppm utility to install the modules.

In command prompt...

ppm install DBI

and 

ppm install DBD::ODBC


(You will also need DBD::ODBC to connect using ODBC)

RE: How to install DBI on AIX; need DBDSybase and DBDOracle to work

2001-08-17 Thread Curt Russell Crandall

Maybe I've missed something... but I'd recommend not using a tarball
directly and just use the CPAN module to install it:

perl -MCPAN -e "install 'DBI'"
perl -MCPAN -e "install 'DBD::Sybase'"
perl -MCPAN -e "install 'DBD::Oracle'"

assuming you have a standard setup on your box, you can probably just
select the defaults for everything and let CPAN.pm do all the dirty work.
This is pretty much the same way PPM works with ActiveState.

HTH,
Curt

I've been working with AIX, DBI and DBD::Oracle since 1998, I installed
them with differents versions of AIX, Oracle, DBI, DBD::Oracle and C
compilers and never had big problems.
I recommend that you transfer the 'tarball' file to the AIX box and then
unpack it. Some windows ftp clients don't care about uppercase and
lowercase.

Michael,

To clear things up a little, I have my Sybase laptop with Windows 2000
which
has Active State installed.  I then used the PPM to install my DBI and
Sybase and Oracle DBDs.  This is one environment where things work ok.
The other environement which is going to be the official production
environment is UNIX AIX.  I am having no success here.

Now, you say to type perl Makefile.PL (noting caps).  However, after
expanding the file after the download, the file is all lowercase.  The way
I
expand it is to use my NT 4.0 workstation using winzip.  Then I ftp the
files over to a unix folder where it is lowercase.  Then I type 'perl
makefile.pl'.

Can I use winzip and ftp the files as I have?
Where should I put the expanded files on my unix server?
What authorization do I need to do the work (i.e. root level)?

Concerning the PERL5LIB variable, it is not set...  see below...

ricew@spnode01> echo $PERL5LIB


/u/ricew
ricew@spnode01>

Thanks,
Wayne

I'm a little confused here - are you using ActiveState on AIX, or are
you saying that you successfully installed DBI/DBD::xxx on Win32 with
ActiveState?

Anyway - you first should run perl Makefile.PL (note caps) for DBI. If
that fails there is no point in going any further - you first need to
figure out why it fails.

Do you have the PERL5LIB variable set to some weird value?
