I'm setting up PHPTriad on my computer. I've upgraded to a recent version of perl, and am installing the modules I'll need.
I installed CGI::Session and HTML::Template with ease. I've run into a problem when trying to install DBI-1.42, so that my scripts can interact with MySQL...

When I run perl makefile.pl, I get the following warning: "You are using a perl configured with threading enabled. You should be aware that using multiple threads is not recommended for production environments"

Then it does some stuff (Creating DBI::PurePerl.....) and gives me the following error:
"Warning: Prerequisite Test::More failed to load: Can't locate......."

When I try to run nmake once it finishes, it seems to do what it needs to, until it ends up giving me a fatal error stating:
"NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe' : return code '0x1'
Stop."

I'll admit, I haven't got a clue what's wrong. Does anyone know how I can get DBI installed so that my script will be able to communicate with MySQL?

Any help is MUCH appreciated.
