The Intranet Server Setup is showing some problems as the MySQL module is not included in the installation package of the Active Perl. And also the Active Perl 5.10.x is said to have failed with MySQL Database. I dont know about this, but there should be some consideration for MySQL to be included in the Active Perl Package as it is hard to install it as a ppm.
Installing the modules as ppms can be directly done through the internet. But it is working only in the 5.6.x version of the active perl and it is not working in the newer versions. And the problem with the old 5.6.x versions of the Active perl was that they just support the MySQL Database Module version upto around 2.009 and nothing more than that.
The current version of the mysql module is 4.009 and is available for download at the activestate website.
The newer versions of the active perl is considered much more complex for operation because of the removal of the command promt ppm. Or may be I am not able to find it.
But for me, the repositories are being installed in 5.6.x version of active perl. And the psychostats is asking for better version.
And for 5.8.x and 5.10.x, the repository installation from the internet is difficult to carryout.
Appended:
Easy option is to get the latest version of Fedora Core, 10 or 11 and then select Perl and its addons while installation and then run stats.pl on this machine. Because this is pre-configured.
