Trouble installing DBI-1.616 on Redhat
 

Hi all.. I'm trying to interface Perl and Mysql interface using DBI and DBD..

I am installing DBI-1.616 and the perl present is 5.008008.

However the issue I am having is that at the end of running tests using make test I get the following output
30 tests and 225 subtests skipped.
Failed 56/178 test scripts, 68.54% okay. 1428/5109 subtests failed, 72.05% okay.
make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255

Can anyone please help me with this?? I'm willing to post the output of the make test command, but Its wayy too huge.. So if you guys suspect some particular thing then I can provide you further details and paste only the required outputs..

I really have to do this DBI/DBD interface in a day or two or else my entire project will be stalled.. Can you please help?

# yum install perl-DBI : Version 1.52 is installed. ( EL 5 ).
( perl-DBI-1.52-2.el5.i386.rpm )
And EL 6 uses 'perl-DBI-1.609'.

"Nobody" uses DBI-1.616 (But the test on perl 5.10.1 : "Result: PASS")
