I recently upgraded from an older version of activeperl to ver 5.8.8. This
required a clean install, so got a snapshot of my installed modules and had
ppm restore them. Recently I've been having a problem with some DBI
operations involving MySQL causing Perl to unexpectedly exit without any
error messages when it should in face generate them. I found by looking at
PPM that there are two version of DBI installed, ver 1.54 installed in area
"site" and ver 1.52-r1 installed in area "perl."



I'm wondering if this could be the source of my problem and if its OK to
uninstall the older version in area "perl." I hesitate because I think that
was probably included in the activestate package and I don't want to screw
up anything that is specially required by the windoze installation. Can
anyone advise me?



Thanks...



Steve
