After installation, Perl (v 5.10.0) does not find the Mysql.pm file in the installation. Also, after pointing to it, the connect() function appears not to exist anymore. Somehow, I now have to use DBI:. Is there an alternative that prevents me to from having to rewrite some hundred scripts? Marco
Revert to the Perl and the libdb-mysql-perl (or whatever it's called) from your distribution packager. Alternatively, reinstall libdb-mysql-perl from source. Your INClude paths (perl -V) change when you install a new version. Your libdb-mysql bindings are most likely not moved / upgraded to the new directory layout. Perhaps there's a special command, like the update-python-modules. Better in the long run: start programming modules, where the database dependend stuff is in one module. That way you only have to change one module. Paul
