Mysql installation problems - UPDATED + FIXED
Newbie to linux and am installing mysql onto redhat 9 and am getting an error for missing dependencies:
[root@server Software Downloads]# rpm -Uvh mysql-3.23.58-1.9.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
perl(CGI) is needed by mysql-3.23.58-1.9
perl-DBD-MySQL is needed by mysql-3.23.58-1.9
[root@server Software Downloads]# rpm -Uvh perl-DBD-MySQL-2.1021-3.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by perl-DBD-MySQL-2.1021-3
I've done a:
locate libmysqlclient.so.10
nothing was returned so I guess I don't have it. I've done a few googles etc but not really found any answers. I did find on a site that the mysql rpm requires the libmysqlclient.so.10 yet also provides it - how does that work? How can I get just that lib and also what does it mean by perl(cgi)? Again, I''ve googled on that and searched forums but not found an answer
thanks
