I am trying to use perl with mysql. I have a tutorial open which prompted me to perform the following.
$ sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan> install DBI cpan[2]> install DBD::mysql DBI installed. The 'install DBD::mysql' failed. Is DBD part of DBI? What am I missing? The DBD run is in the attached installlation-help.txt file Thank you; Sherman
