My HD suddenly had a lot of bad sectors so had to do the dreaded F/F/R

My EQ and Emu are on a separate drive so they're still intact but now I need to install/setup MySQL and Perl and the wiki is still down. I tried searching for different keywords that sounded like they would take me to a post but got either Page cannot be displayed or found.

Is there a post anywhere that explains how to setup mysql and perl? If i remember right, mysql was pretty straight forward but perl needed some extra commands run.

Once you have perl installed , get a command prompt and enter ppm

At the ppm prompt enter the following:

install DBI
install DBD-Mysql
Install IO-stringy

You should be good to go after that.

MySql you can get the install info from the MySql site.
