[Pdx-pm] dyld error with DBD::mysql

[Tom Keller]

Thanks for the good suggestions. There is a problem with word size incompatibility. But I reinstalled MySQL (dmg file for 64-bit intel)  to match my Perl (both are 64-bit now) and this did not fix the library problem when using CPAN to install DBD::mysql. I found a solution at http://bixsolutions.net/forum/thread-8.html Basically, just use cpan to get the module, then install "by hand" so you can give Makefile.PL<http://Makefile.PL> the test user and password for MySQL, and one other modification. It turned out to be necessary to run make (and make test) as root; at least on my system.

thanks again folks,
Tom

Have any of you seen this and figured out a workaround?
dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _mysql_init
  Referenced from:
/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.bundle

Searching for "Symbol not found: _mysql_init" seems to indicate that you
might have a 32 vs 64-bit issue.  Did you build DBD::mysql from a
tarball?

If there's a .dylib next to that .bundle, or something you could run ldd
on to see the linkage?
