Platform Win2000 Server.
I have "ActivePerl-5.6.0.623-MSWin32-x86-multi-thread" and "mysql-3.23.32-win".
In order to make these to work together i need to install DBI-1.14. (Perl DBI module.) and Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2215.(Perl DBD module to access mSQL and MySQL databases.)

As I understand DBI.pm has to be installed before mySQL.pm. I run "Perl MakeFile.pl" in comandline and it makes "makeFile" which has to be run with "dmake.exe".
I have downloaded "dmake.exe" and when I run "dmake MakeFile" it gives this message:
dmake.exe: makefile: line 895: Error -- Expecting macro or rule defn, found neither
and the line 895 is at the buttom of MakeFile:
# --- MakeMaker pm_to_blib section:
....
....
$(PM_TO_BLIB)
<<
@$(TOUCH) $@

I really don't know how to put these 2 modules in.
Can anyone help me?

I appreciate any suggestion
Regards
Ciamak
