Dear People

Further to my previous query, i have looked through the DBI docs and
understand that there is no command called new.al which is implemented by
DBI. The DBI and Perl 5.8.0 modules were installed when i installed mandrake
9.0.

When i go to run the application, the perl compliler is looking for a
command called new.al, saying unable to locate auto/DBI/new.al in the ISA
array.

DBI is properley installed in the correct location, but i am unsure why perl
is looking for a command that does not exist in DBI?

I am unsure where i am going wrong as all the modules where installed whilst
setting up mandrake.

Many thanks
Ian Rogers
