LIBMYSQL.dll error

[samandhi]

Thanks for the reply... I have searched and found that the file LIBMYSQL.dll is there but not reading it for some reason... Maybe because I am using mysql 64???? I am going to uninstall and reinstall 32bit and see if all works out...

The perl issue I am aware of from searching the forums for a bit. I have downloaded that version of perl (again I was using 64bit) for 32 bit.... The 64 bit version 8.8.224 wont get you anywhere as there IS no repository for it. So doing

 ppm install DBI

does nothing but get you errors saying it cant find the repository (which I have found is actually true they dont exist).

After changing both of these, I will post back and let ya know if this solved it or not....

The perl revision that is needed can be problamatic as it can vary depending on who does the emulator compile and what version of perl that person is using. Perl x64 is troublesome to say the least, I won't say that it doesn't work but you will run into problems that don't exist in the x86 versions.

If you downloaded your emulator revision from http://code.google.com/p/projecteqemu/downloads/list I think that it uses ActivePerl-5.8.9.826-MSWin32-x86-290470 and possibly a few revisions earlier will work.

If you haven't already read this: http://eqemulator.net/forums/showthread.php?t=26643 then do so as it may shed some light on the problems that you are encountering.
