Re: [cobalt-developers] permission error on installing mysql DBD driver for perl

[Albert Victor <Albert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

thanks guys!!
I appreciate your help!
I tried mysql -t test and I get
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)
the database does seem to exist I just can access it. I tried it with and
without a password in the DBD setup...  I am trying to set up the dbd drivers to
I can access a database using perl.

I set up the dbd module via telnet as the root user.  If I install the drivers
using Makefile.PL  as the root user, would those files be installed as the root
also?

Another hitch, and maybe this is the problem.  I am the only user on this box,
but when I got it there was already a site set up, I deleted the html files and
set my site up as a virtual site. The original site obviously goes to a dead IP
address since I now have this server, but the bad ip and old site name still
show up in the admin section of the online control panel, the only site that
will live on this server is set up as site1 and I am able to change my access to
a root user.

I went back and tried to install the DBD rpm instead and got an error that said
Cant install MySQL, failed dependency ld.so.1

Thanks again for your time and trouble!
