MySQL 8.4 Reference Manual  /  ...  /  Installing ActiveState Perl on Windows

2.10.2 在 Windows 上安装 ActiveState Perl

On Windows, you should do the following to install the MySQL DBD module with ActiveState Perl:

  1. Get ActiveState Perl from http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePerl/ and install it.

  2. Open a console window.

  3. If necessary, set the HTTP_proxy variable. For example, you might try a setting like this:

    C:\> set HTTP_proxy=my.proxy.com:3128
  4. Start the PPM program:

    C:\> C:\perl\bin\ppm.pl
  5. If you have not previously done so, install DBI:

    ppm> install DBI
  6. If this succeeds, run the following command:

    ppm> install DBD-mysql

This procedure should work with ActiveState Perl 5.6 or higher.

If you cannot get the procedure to work, you should install the ODBC driver instead and connect to the MySQL server through ODBC:

use DBI;
$dbh= DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:$dsn",$user,$password) ||
  die "Got error $DBI::errstr when connecting to $dsn\n";
