If I give 'i DBD::mysql' I get:
Installing: DBD::mysql
I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:
cflags (mysql_config) = -I'/usr/include/mysql'
libs (mysql_config) = -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm
nocatchstderr (default ) = 0
ssl (guessed ) = 0
testdb (default ) = test
testhost (default ) =
testpassword (default ) =
testuser (default ) =
To change these settings, see 'perl Makefile.PL --help' and
'perldoc INSTALL'.
Checking if your kit is complete...

Hi,
Because I was just not sure. I want to get started practicing Perl for
web stuff, and just didnt know. I have NT4 and loaded Apache2 which
works fine. I now want to add Perl so I can start working with it.
Please advise, given my scenario.
THanks for the responses,
Jim

Notes
=====
- A line in the body of a post is considered to be original if it
does *not* match the regular expression /^\s{0,3}(?:>|:|\S+>|\+\+)/.
- All text after the last cut line (/^-- $/) in the body is
considered to be the author's signature.
- The scanner prefers the Reply-To: header over the From: header
in determining the "real" email address and name.
- Original Content Rating (OCR) is the ratio of the original content
volume to the total body volume.

Subject: TimeStamp - localtime
Message-Id: <ZUPoa.4644$8K2.37881@news-server.bigpond.net.au>
Hi,
Im trying to assign a variable a timesatmp that i can use for writing
modified
times to a file.
My Code,
use strict;
use Getopt::Std;
use Time::localtime;
use POSIX 'strftime';
sub OpenFile;
sub CreateTS;
OpenFile($filename);
print FILEHANDLE CreateTS;
print FILEHANDLE "$separator\n";
print FILEHANDLE @lines;
print FILEHANDLE "$separator\n";
close FILEHANDLE;
sub CreateTS
{
$timestamp = strftime "%Y%m%d%H%M%S", localtime;
return $timestamp;
}
I receive this error every time i try and use this code.
Usage: POSIX::strftime(fmt, sec, min, hour, mday, mon, year, wday = -1, yday
= -1, isdst = -1) at ./post-it.pl line 115, <STDIN> line 2.

Thanks for pointing it out Bob. But I did try with a valid link too, like
the one you sent me. The problem is persisting.

I use AS perl 5.8 too on Windows 2000 Server. But I am behind a firewall, so
wonder if that is giving me problems.
I can see the image when I type the URL on a web browser, but here is my
code below with the error I get.
CODE:
use LWP::Simple;
my $url = 'http://www.perl.com/images/75-logo.jpg';
my $file = 'pic.jpg';
my $err = getstore($url,$file);
print $err;
ERROR:
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at
E:/Perl58/site/lib/LWP/Protocol.pm line 114.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
E:/Perl58/site/lib/LWP/Protocol.pm line 87.
501
What does this 501 error code mean anyways? Is it same as the HTTP Errors we
sometimes see on Web Explorers like IE?
Thanks
