Perl/Mysql/ DBI Problems?
Posted by: Franklin Xeimeister

I am wanting to use Perl to manipulate some Mysql databases that I have built. The examples on the web are made to look easy. The problem is, I can never get past some DBI errors. Here is an example of the error I am receiving.

"Can't locate DB_File.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/site/lib C:/Perl/lib .) at C:\Development\Perl\Source\test.pl line 4."

From some of the online trouble-shooting they want me to do a PPM install of DBI and it appears that it is already installed. I am not sure what to do as many of the online tutorials just go straight into examples with no help on how to make sure everything is setup and how to trouble-shoot any possible configuration problems. In my test program all I am doing is just trying to connect to the MySql database, using an example I found online. Please help!

OS: Windows XP
Perl: Active Perl 5.10.0
