Thanks for the help. Actually I was on the right track, I just didn't finish it with make and make install. Anyway, maybe you can help with my next one. I got my software installed, but when I try to hit the web page I get an error in the httpd error_log that it "Can't find DBD/mysql.pm.
So I downloaded that perl module (DBD-mysql) and tried to load it. It starts out with some errors. It then complains about a problem with ExtUtils/liblist/kid.pm. So I installed ExtUtils-MakeMaker, but I still get the errors below. Not sure what to do. There is also an error I don't know what to do about: Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lmysqlclient I can see in the script it's looking in the /usr/local/mysql/lib directory, and there are files in there like: libmysqlclient.a Any assistance is appreciated.
