LiveJournal requires several Perl modules to be installed. Installing these modules requires a fully working perl and C development environment (including a C compiler and make tool).

Note

Some modules such as GD and Compress::Zlib require certain system libraries to be pre-installed on your machine. Please read the author-provided README files for each module before proceeding further.

DBD::mysql::INSTALL - How to install and configure DBD::mysql SYNOPSIS perl Makefile.PL options make make test make install DESCRIPTION This document describes the installation and configuration of DBD::mysql, the Perl DBI driver for the MySQL database.

This may mean particular development packages need to be installed on your system, before a Perl module will install in CPAN. For example, on a Debian system, to install the optional Math::BigInt::GMP module, you should install libgmp3-dev first. Similarly, you may need to install the “development” packages for MySQL and GD on your system, before attempting to install the related Perl modules. The names of these packages varies between Linux distributions, but are often called <packagename>-dev. Installing binary packages of modules provided through your Linux distribution is the easier option.

To access SQL Server from Perl on Linux, we used Easysoft ODBC drivers with Perl DBI and DBD::ODBC on Debian GNU/Linux, RedHat and Ubuntu (Edgy Eft, Feisty Fawn, Gutsy Gibbon and Hardy Heron). Easysoft ODBC drivers should work with any recent 32-bit or 64-bit Linux distribution—CentOS, Fedora, Kubuntu, Mandrake/Mandriva, OpenSUSE/SUSE, RedHat.
For a number of Linux distributions, you can install MySQL using the MySQL Yum repository instead of the platform's native software repository. See Section 2.5.1, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL Yum Repository” for details.
DBD::mysql is the Perl5 Database Interface driver for the MariaDB/MySQL database. In other words: DBD::mysql is an interface between the Perl programming language and the MySQL programming API that comes with the MariaDB/MySQL relational database management system. Most functions provided by this programming API are supported.

Debian Install. If you are using Debian the following command should retrieve and build every required module. If there are any modules not yet packaged in Debian, you can use CPAN to install those — Unicode::CheckUTF8 is an example.:
