RE: (Fwd) DBI???

Is you MySQL servver started.  You need to start the server, see the docs
for the command or you can do through the menu.  Also if you already
installed DBI, which you should of done using PPM utility that comes with
ActivePerl by saying in command prompt...
>ppm install DBI
If you have internet access.
Then you need to install DBD::MySQL...
>ppm install DBD-mysql

Then you should be able to start programming.  Do the steps above first.

Thanks for your prompt reply -
I'm trying to program the database from perl - problem is the server
won't
run at all I have downloaded the mysql and myodbc and a dbi (which I
don't
know what to do with - I'm not sure how to set this module up?) The
server
says:
>: "Error 2003: can't connect to MySQL Server on
>: 'localhost' <10061>"

I can't find the mysqld-shareware.exe
I only have the mysqld.exe
I have run the --install but it remaines unconnected and down.
I can send a copy of my int file if you want to look - I'm not sure what
settings the localhost should run on - all the drivers are there and the
start check has ok everything - this one is a tough one!

Thanks

Kurt
