Hi John,
You say ppm indicates that DBI is up to date -- did you try running 'ppm
verify DBD::mysql'?

This may be some kind of elementary problem, but I don't understand it.
I'm trying to run a program that loads records into a mysql table.
According to ppm, I have the latest version of DBI installed. But I get
the following error message every time:
install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't locate DBD/mysql.pm in @INC (@INC
contains:
C:/Program Files/perl/site/lib C:/Program Files/perl/lib.) at (eval 4)
line 3.
Perhaps the DBD::mysql perl module hasn't been fully installed
or perhaps the capitalization of 'mysql' isn't right.
Available drivers: DBM, ExampleP, File, Gofer, Proxy, SQLite, Sponge.
at C:\Documents and Settings\jthiesen\My Documents\perl\obitload.pl line 17
And here's the code in the first part of the program
use DBI;
$obitout = DBI->connect('dbi:mysql:obits', 'root', 'password') or die
"Connection Error: $DBI::errstr\n";
