Hi all, I have blogged a bit about Camel Bones here on O'Reilly. Please comment if you would so that the python person who commented is not the sole comment. Nothing personal against python but it sucks. http://www.oreillynet.com/mac/blog/2007/05/developing_with_camel_bones_pe_1.html

Yeah, that link looks good. You can grep your Makefile.PL and compare your path to the mysql header files to where they exist on your system. I bet that is the problem, make can't find your mysql header files. Jeremiah On Sep 25, 2007, at 2:27 PM, Lysimachos Zografos wrote:

The more package-oriented way is probably to use the DBI package at the top of your script. Perhaps you could do something like this: #!/path/to/perl use strict; use warnings; use DBI; # connect to database my $dbh = DBI-connect('DBI:mysql:db_name','user','password') or die
