DBI - MySQL installation question
Hi, I have a MySQL database I want to fill from a dbaseIII+ database. Someone advised me to use a Perl script with DBI. Using Fedora 4, I installed Perl. Then I downloaded DBI-1.50 but except from unpacking it, I'm unable to install it. I downloaded the Makefile, but "perl Makefile.pl" gives this: Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: lib /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at lib/DBI.pm line 256 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at lib/DBI.pm line 256. Compilation failed in require at lib/DBI/DBD.pm line 3641. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at lib/DBI/DBD.pm line 3642. Compilation failed in require at Makefile.PL line 38. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 38. # Looks like your test died before it could output anything. Can someone please tell me what's up? Thanks hvn
