connecting to mysql database in NT

[Davc]

I am attemtping to insert information into a mysql() database. I have a perl script that communicates with the database, but it gives an error on connection .
--
DBCan't create IP socket (10106) at C:\webserver\Jigsaw\Jigsaw\

http://WWW\cgi-bin\upload3.pl

line 25.
--

I am running Jigsaw webserver off windows NT, and I am also running mysql off the same machine.
The code I am usin to connect to the database is...
--
my $DBH = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:database=files;host=149.157.246.87","david","david&quot
or die "Error connecting to DB".DBI->errstr;
--
Does anyone have any ideas where I am going wrong?

..=("DBI:mysql:files:149.157.246.87","david","david"

note the punctuation and you can drop :149.157.246.87 for local machine.
