in reply to DBD::mysql 4.003 installation failed

As jZed suggests, make sure you have mysql installed. Furthermore, I would also make sure that the server is up and running + you have a root account without a password. Then it will install without any errors!

    Thanks for your reply. I have installed mysql 4.1.22 version and am also able to login using the root pwd for mysql. I tried installing it using the CPAN mode. but it gives me an error saying ...'no host found'...may be because of the firewall. So had to install it manually using tar files. what should I do?..please suggest
