![]() I wanted - sorry WANT - to install mod_perl (on my Windows XP pc), ppm install seemed to be telling me I needed a newer version of perl (can't remember exact text now it all seems so long ago). I don't believe I can possibly be the first person to try this, I'm only adding this here for other's benefit hitting a similar problem and finding this link. So i downgrade mySQL to 4.0.2 and it works!Īctive Perl 5.6 don't work on bugzilla use 5.8 and take the package at so i try to recompile new version of dbd try to set mysql password to old format and so on. dbi and dbd was installed fine but i was always getting a error message saying to update my client. I tried pass a complete journey try to make works MySQL 4.1.4 and ActivePerl 5.8 on windows. But after downloading I unpacked and made as the readme file says and everything went fine. Then using the repository command, add the full path to the temp directory, turn off the others, and run ppm> Install dbi. Next, if you are like me and developing on an intrAnet server from a workstation and the net is not connected to your server, then go to, locate DBI-1.37.ZIP, download it, extract the files to a temp directory. First, the command should be c:\perl\ppm.bat, that gets the package manager working. I discovered that the above instructions were in error. I too was missing DBI after installation of 5.8.0 in Windows. Instructions on building Perl 5.8 (and above) for Windows NT/2000/XP Use install in ppm with the folowing URL as the first arguement.Ī better choice to ActiveState Perl, is your own build of Perl 5.8+ Using the Perl Package Manager, I was able to install DBD from the link that is given above and everything is working fine.Īnd if you missed it above. I used ppm2 to install, ppm3 failed all attempts. I was unable to connect with the ftp server, however i found the ppd here: Works perfectly for me with ActiveState Perl Version 5.8 However, Randy Kobes has kindly donated a PPM package However, every 5.8 version of DBD I could find did not work so I had to go back to Perl 5.6 and follow the instructions above to use DBD again.Īs of this writing, the above procedure won't work with ActivePerl 5.8.0, because so far a PPM for DBD::mysql is not available from the ActiveState server. I have read around the internet that Perl 5.6 and Perl 5.8 are binary incompatible so libraries must be recompiled. I never could resolve this problem in Perl 5.8. ![]() The older PPM file on CPAN, WILL NOT WORK. The new version of ActivePerl ActivePerl-5.8.0.804-MSWin32-x86 requires you to recompile the DBD::mysql driver manually. I want to install DBI.User Comments Posted by on Janu3:59am opt/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.3/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multiĪll installed files under the perl installation directory are having root or bin as user id.
