DBD::mysql 4.025

[Paul Durden]

The DBD::mysql CPAN module has been updated to 4.025 to address many
Windows related issues.

The DBD::mysql version packaged with Strawberry Perl v5.18.1.1 is 4.023.

I have had no luck in building the 4.025 myself, and was wondering if
anyone has a binary install, or knows if the next Strawberry Perl
maintenance release will include the newer version.

Thanks,
Paul

You'd be able to compile it using kmx's instructions.
Also, the 4.023 version in Strawberry does have the most important fix
that is in 4.024 and later for Win32, it was separately added to
StrawberryPerl by kmx.

Mike,
Thanks for the info. The change log for 4.025 indicates more Windows
related fixes, so I thought I'd try it.

If this fixes it, I'll let you know.

Thanks,
Paul

Updated my mysql_config.bat file to provide the various --testXXX
parameters, and everything worked great!

Also, the change to DBD::mysql 4.025 resolved my problem.

Using the 4.023 that shipped with Strawberry Perl, whenever I attempted to
add a row with a duplicate key, I received the following exception:
"DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::_dbh_execute(): Unknown error: execute()
returned false, but error flags were not set... "

Now, with 4.025 I get the more reasonable exception:
"DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::_dbh_execute(): DBI Exception:
DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Duplicate entry 'Chamber 03' for key
'chamber_name'..."

Perl -v reports "This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 1 (v5.18.1) built
for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-64int"

I hope this is not considered bad form, but I just wanted to add this in
case someone comes across this thread searching for a problem at a later
date.

It looks like DBD::mysql 4.025 is now included in Strawberry Perl 5.18.2.1
according to the "List of distributions installed on top of Perl 5.18.2"
section of the release notes.
