Hi,

With XAMPP 1.8.2, I am getting the following error when trying to connect to DB using cgi script:

Code: Select all

Software error:

install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load 'C:/strawberry/perl/vendor/lib/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.dll' for module DBD::mysql: load_file:The specified module could not be found at C:/strawberry/perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 190.
 at (eval 9) line 3.
Compilation failed in require at (eval 9) line 3.
Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected
 at C:/xampp/htdocs/virtual/ps.dev/cgi-bin/admin/setup.cgi line 2004.


I have been researching on this but couldn't find any solution. Any clues what could be wrong.

Seems to got fixed after I removed unwanted references specified in PATH key in the registry.
