not able to install DBD::mysql on Windows

[preetha m]

Hi,

I have installed ActivePerl 5.12.4 on my windows machine which is missing DBD:mysql driver. I tried to install it through several ways but cudn't pass through.

This is the error I'm receiving when I perform binary installation.

C:\Perl\bin>ppm install dbd-mysql
Downloading DBD-mysql-4.020...redirect
Downloading DBD-mysql-4.020...done
Unpacking DBD-mysql-4.020...ppm install failed: Can't extract files from C:\User
s\username\AppData\Local\Temp\ppm-x75dhB/DBD-mysql-4.020.tgz

CPAN too doesn't work for me.

I really have no idea of what could be the problem. Have spent real lot time to fix this but hard luck so far. Please help.

Thanks,
Preetha
