Well don’t rename .DLLs – that clearly won’t work.

However, I’m not sure who you wouldn’t have the libmysql.dll file. What version of MYSQL do you have installed?

I installed DBD-mysql from http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/, but it say’s it can’t find libmysql.dll. When I rename mysql.dll to libmysql.dll, it say’s that it can’t find entry point in dll or something like that… Why?

My system: Win2000, ActiveState Perl 5.8.0.804

Hey,

Here is a site which has a few PPD files to use with PPM. DBD-mysql is there. It was great for me because I use DBD-SQLite but AS didn’t have that for 5.8 so there you go. : )

If you want to add it as a repository:

“Can you elaborate?”

A little: mt-check.cgi told me I didn’t have it installed.

I posted on the Support forum at movabletype.org, I’ll let it perc a little then look at it again.

Thanks

“MT doesn’t recognize DBD-mysql as being installed.”

Can you elaborate? Maybe someone reading this blog will have come across this issue already.

Interestingly, my experiments with the Google API found some additional pages for me as I was searching using 5.8.0 but when I made this post I used 5.8 as a keyword instead.
