i run opensuse 13.1 and i allready have installed mysql db it is up and running.



i want to do some work with openstreetmap-data and perl - retrieving data ( Pois ) from a planet-file and stoging them in the database - see all my intention in an overview http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Tagtheworld

i think it is interesting to use osmDB.pm

regarding the use of OsmDB.pm - what it does for me;
<quote> Install mysql server change root password (maybe create user/password for osm use) create osmdb.ini in program folder and put in two lines (user=name AND password=abc) create database(s) (tables, indexes etc. will be handled by osmDB.pm) Install perl DBI module put osmDB.pm in module folder (like osm.pm) </quote>

cf. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OsmDB.pm

note; i allready have installed the mysql-databae. does this create any conflict if i now try to install osmDB.pm?

Or can i try to install it - and go round all the conflicts?

love to hear from you

greetings
