True for a number of perl modules!
Authored by: rlaycock on Jun 26, '03 11:24:44AM

I had the same problem with the DBD Bundle. I remapped the alias and the install ran fine; no more "bus error". Still it failed at the very end. It said my server wasn't running. I assume that's MySQL. I'm on 4.0.13 and it certainly was on. I was installing the very latest bundle version which Rob @ heavyhosting had recommended I get off CPAN for v4.

Any idea what the heck is preventing this damn thing from installing? I'm thinking it could be a permission thing. I ran "sudo" of course and my root user is set in MySQL.

Rich.

Update:

I had to remove the password on the MySQL "root" user. Even then the CPAN Bundle didn't complete but the downloaded modules from CPAN ran separately did. I used DBD-mysql-2.1028 & DBI-1.37.
