Dear monks, I am trying to use DBI from Tinyperl.

To the lib folder in the C:\tinyperl\lib.zip archive, I've added DBI.pm, the DBI, DBD, auto/DBI and auto/DBD folders (and all their contents) from the main (Active)perl distro.

Then a simple use DBI; produces 
Can't locate object method "_install_method" via package "DBI" at /loa
+der/0x1906548/DBI.pm line 445.
Compilation failed in require at (eval 24) line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 24) line 1.

[download]
I get the same error with both versions 1.1 and 2. Can you point me in the right direction to resolve this problem?

Thanks in advance.
