I am beginner in perl. i needed to connect the perl programs to mysql
database. Therefore I downloaded dbi and dbd:mysql (actually it was
mysql-msql modules). I am finding it difficult to compile and run both dbi
and dbd:mysql module. By the way I am using Windows 98.
When I tried out dbi
-------------------
i.e first compiling "makefile.pl" and then make, make test and install (as
said in the faq documentation) the following error message appears
------------------------------------------------------------
C:\DBI-1.18>make
MAKE Version 5.0 Copyright (c) 1987, 1997 Borland International
Error makefile 150: Colon expected
Error makefile 797: Redefinition of target 'DBI.c'
Fatal makefile 893: No terminator specified for in-line file operator
--------------------------error------------------------------------
When I tried out dbd::mssql
---------------------------
When the makefile.pl has been compiled there are a few questions to be
answered.
In one of the questions it asks for the path of 'include' directory. but
there wasn't a include dir in this mysql-msql module. What does this
include dir mean. The default gives "local/usr/hughs"
