Re: [cobalt-users] Mysql installation problem

["Amanda John" <kourni@xxxxxxxxx>]

I posted this very problem to the list last week.  The solution is simple.
To install the MySQL perl modules you have to download and install the MySQL
source available from www.mysql.com.  Do a "locate MySQL" to find an
uninstall file for the mysql package you installed, run it, then install the
mysql.tar.gz source file you'll find in the downloads area on the official
mysql website.

Once you've installed the source, files like mysql.h will magically appear
and you'll be able to proceed with the installation of mysql modules you
want.
