Maybe the driver DBD::mysql is not installed; try to reinstall it

Activestate: ppm install DBD::mysql Gnuperl: perl -MCPAN -e shell install DBD::mysql

Best regards,
perl -le "s==*F=e=>y~\*martinF~stronat~=>s~[^\w]~~g=>chop,print"

    Just in case this helps, the mSQL and MySQL drivers are very different.

    thank you for your reply! using perl -MCPAN -e shell install DBD::mysql this will NOT mess up the current DBD module right? (the one that the legacy database and scripts are still using). I typed it and CPAN started asking me to make directories and such - just kinda made me nervous that I dont fark up the server
