    140 MySQL Technical Reference for Version 4.0.3 As of Version 3.22.8, Perl support is distributed separately from the main MySQL distri- bution.  If you want to install Perl support, the les you will need can be obtained from http://www.mysql.com/Downloads/Contrib/. The  Perl  distributions  are  provided  as  compressed  tar  archives  and  have  names  like `MODULE-VERSION.tar.gz', where MODULE is the module name and VERSION is the version number. You should get the Data-Dumper, DBI, and Msql-Mysql-modules distributions and install them in that order.  The installation procedure is shown here.  The example shown is for the Data-Dumper module, but the procedure is the same for all three distributions: 1.  Unpack the distribution into the current directory: shell> gunzip < Data-Dumper-VERSION.tar.gz | tar xvf - This command creates a directory named `Data-Dumper-VERSION'. 2.  Change into the top-level directory of the unpacked distribution: shell> cd Data-Dumper-VERSION 3.  Build the distribution and compile everything: shell> perl Makefile.PL shell> make shell> make test shell> make install The make test command is important because it veri es that the module is working.  Note that when you run that command during the Msql-Mysql-modules installation to exercise the interface code, the MySQL server must be running or the test will fail. It is a good idea to rebuild and reinstall the Msql-Mysql-modules distribution whenever you install a new release of MySQL, particularly if you notice symptoms such as all your DBI scripts dumping core after you upgrade MySQL. If you don't have the right to install Perl modules in the system directory or if you to install local Perl modules, the following reference may help you: http://www.iserver.com/support/contrib/perl5/modules.html Look under the heading Installing New Modules that Require Locally Installed Modules 2.7.2  Installing ActiveState Perl on Windows To install the MySQL DBD module with ActiveState Perl on Windows, you should do the following:    Get  ActiveState  Perl  from   http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePerl/ and install it.    Open a DOS shell.    If required, set the HTTP proxy variable.  For example, you might try: set HTTP_proxy=my.proxy.com:3128    Start the PPM program: C:\> c:\perl\bin\ppm.pl    If you have not already done so, install DBI:
