DBD::mysql
Hey there, Just a quick question. I am currently using freeBSD 4.7 and need to have perl be able to talk to the mysql databases which we currently have running.

Could anyone help me with what I need to do to install and configure DBD::mysql without breaking current MySQL installs etc?

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

Installing DBD::mysql won't do anything to any existing mysql installations. With that said, you can either
(a) Install from ports, in which case you would go to /usr/ports/databases/p5-Mysql and type make install
(b) Download the sources of DBD::Mysql from CPAN and then type:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install

Thanks for the reply, After my post I was looking around on the server and the internet, and found a test script.

I installed the perl script changed the configuration settings and found that I could already connect to the mysql using perl.

Sorry for making you type your responce, but it is useful to know if I need to do it on any other platform

Cheers
