Do ing a
use MySQL;
does not load a DBI driver. What you have to do is
use DBI;
and then when you are creating your database handle you tell it what type
of database it is and it loads the correct files from there.
$dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:mydb","user","pass");
You need to install the DBI and the mysql DBM, also known as
mSQL-MySQL-modules.
