Subject: installing perl modules From: Charles Galpin <cgalpin@lighthouse-software.com> Date: Wed, 10 Nov 1999 09:30:44 -0500 (EST) After upgrading to 6.1, bringing with it a perl upgrade, I have a perl module (DBI) that was no longer found in the @INC array. This was installed via rpm, so I uninstalled, reinstalled it but it still doesn't get found. I know if I was using a tarball I would just have to do a make install to get this working. How do I do this with the rpm? === From: "Ong" <lhengc1@pd.jaring.my> Newsgroups: comp.lang.perl.modules Subject: Problem Encountered in running DBI:DBD for Perl 5.0 Date: Tue, 16 Nov 1999 09:43:55 +0800 I am fresh in developing DBI::DBD web database application. I used MySql (Windows Platform) as the database of the web application. I have also downloaded the Perl which is able to run DBI from http://www.mysql.com/download.html and unzipped it into my Perl directory. I had tested a script as below: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use DBI; use strict; my $database = "MyNet"; my $data_source = "DBI:mysql:$database"; my $dbh = DBI->connect($data_source) or die "Can't connect to $data_source: $dbh->errstr\n"; $dbh->disconnect; exit(0); When it runs, the error message as below shown: Can't locate loadable object for module DBI in @INC (@INC contains: D:\PERL\lib D:\PERL\site\lib .) at D:\PERL\site\lib/DBI.pm line 164 BEGIN failed -- compilation aborted at D:\PERL\site\lib/DBI.pm line 164. BEGIN failed -- compilation aborted at test.cgi line 2. Can anyone of you guys help me to solve this problem? ===
