Running ActivePerl on Win2000 Advanced Server. Version 5.8
I used ppm to install DBI 1.32. I was trying to connect to a mysql database but everytime I tried to run the script it would hang. After playing around with it for sometime I found it is hanging on 'use DBI;'. A script with just that line hangs. Any idea how I might rectify this problem? Using ppm I uninstalled/reinstalled DBI but it still occurs. please help

TIA

Sounds like you need the DBD::Mysql driver as well. For example when using DBD to connect via ODBC to MS Access you also need the DBD::ODBC driver.
