| I have the following perl code to connect to an mysql database.
use lib "D:\\Perl\\site\\lib\\PerlEx";
use DBI;
# database information
$db="test";
$userid="root";
$password="julie123";
$connectionInfo="DBI:mysql:database=$db;";
# make connection to database
$dbh=DBI->connect($connnectionInfo, $userid,$password);
$query="show tables";
$sth=$dbh->prepare($query);
$sth->execute();
$sth->finish();
$dbh->disconnect;
and I get the follow error. Any suggestions?
C:\Documents and Settings\Patrick>perl database_connection.pl

I should add that I am using Perl 5.8 from ActiveState
