If you are using Windows and need to compile from sources (which is only the case if you are not using ActivePerl or Strawberry Perl), then you must ensure that the header and library files are installed. You may also create client files by compiling from the MariaDB/MySQL source distribution and using. These are sufficient, if the MariaDB/MySQL server is located on a foreign machine. If it is that case, they needs to be installed before MariaDB/MySQL libraries.

In some cases MariaDB or MySQL libraries depends on external libpcre, libaio, libnuma, libjemalloc or libwrap libraries. Debian and Ubuntu comes with DEB packages libmariadb-dev, libmariadbclient-dev, libmariadbd-dev, libmysqlclient-dev or libmysqld-dev (use apt-cache search to find exact package names). You need at least MySQL version 4.1.8.įor example, Fedora, RedHat, CentOS Linux distribution comes with RPM files (using YUM) mariadb-devel, mariadb-embedded-devel, mysql-devel or mysql-embedded-devel (use yum search to find exact package names). They are distributed either in Connector/C package or as part of server package. You need not install the actual MariaDB or MySQL database server, the client files and the development files are sufficient. For Windows, use ActivePerl or Strawberry Perl. For example, all Linux and FreeBSD distributions come with Perl. Preferably a version of Perl, that comes preconfigured with your system. If that doesn't help, you should check the section on 'SUPPORT'.

For details see the separate section 'PREREQUISITES'.įinally, if you encounter any problems, do not forget to read the section on known problems 'KNOWN PROBLEMS'. Before reading on, make sure that you have the prerequisites available: Perl, MariaDB/MySQL and DBI. This document describes the installation and configuration of DBD::MariaDB, the Perl DBI driver for the MariaDB and MySQL database.
