Hi, struggling

I have written a script to connect the mysql db

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use DBI;
#definition of variables
$db=3D"MYTEST";
$host=3D"localhost";
$user=3D"root";
$password=3D"rootpass";

#connect to MySQL database
my $dbh =3D DBI->connect ("DBI:mysql:database=3D$db:host=3D$host:3366",$u=
ser,$password)
or die "Can't connect to database: $DBI::errstr\n=
";

as specified mysql port is 3366 not 3306

but this returns with error,

install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't locate DBD/mysql.pm in [at] INC ( [at] INC conta=
ins: C:/Perl/site/lib C:/Perl/lib .
) at (eval 4) line 3.
Perhaps the DBD::mysql perl module hasn't been fully installed,
or perhaps the capitalisation of 'mysql' isn't right.
Available drivers: CSV, DBM, ExampleP, File, Gofer, ODBC, Oracle, Proxy, SQ=
Lite, Sponge.
at sample.pl line 11

But I already installed DBD::mysql

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ppm install DBD::mysql
Downloading ActiveState Package Repository packlist...not modified
No missing packages to install

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ppm verify DBD::mysql
ppm verify failed: Package 'DBD::mysql' is not installed

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>

I'm using perl version, 5.10.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

Any help will be appreciated, Thanks in advanced for all your help

Hi,

The error shows that DBD:mysql has not been installed correctly. Remove and
install again.

Hi,

Where did the mysql.pm library get installed? Can you find it on your
system; and if so, is that location in your path? I suspect not... but
let's find out first.

Try here http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/package.xml, which I
believe contains the DBI package.
