What disibution are u using?

Meybe there are missing perl-mysql modules in your system?

Sorry then.

does this file exist? '/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so'. Yes, you may need to install a few perl modules

There may be a mysql.so file, but is it for Perl, and is it in the path referenced above?

Go to CPAN.org, download the package and install it:
http://search.cpan.org/~capttofu/DBD-mysql-4.023/

yes.. /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so file is there but it is unable to load @ pan64

file '/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so'

which modules i need to install in my machine to run it properly ?? (mysql is already installed)

I posted a link to the missing perl module above. Did you not see it? There is a DOWNLOAD link on it...click it, save it to your system, and follow the installation instructions. Typically:

• perl Makefile.PL
• make
• make test
• make install

That's it. If it complains about any missing prerequisites, then download them and install them first. Simple.
