perl DBI access to MySQL?
« on: January 18, 2003, 02:24:11 AM »
Hi,

I am writing a perl script that I'd like to use to do some maintenance on a MySQL database on my e-smith 5.1.2 server. To me the obvious way to access the database would seem to be using the DBI module, but it is not installed.

How can I install the perl DBI module, not having make or a c compiler on the server? Alternatively is there another set of tools I could use to access the MySQL database?

TIA
David.
