Can't install DBD for Perl DBI
Below is a copy of the file: DBD-mysql.ppd, and also of the README.
When I try to execute the file I get:
C:\Documents\Temp\x>dir
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 88D5-8262
Directory of C:\Documents\Temp\x

C:\Documents\Temp\x>ppm install DBD-mysql.ppd
ppm install failed: The PPD does not provide code to install for this platform
I suspect the problem is that I am using Perl v 5.10 but I can’t seem to find anything for that version of Perl.
I am using:
Perl: This is perl, v5.10.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
MySQL: Server version: 5.1.31-community MySQL Community Server (GPL)
Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3
Is there something that I can use?
Thanks,
Andynic
PS: I tried to contact patg directly, but the mail was returned as undeliverable.
