Hi,

I'm getting below error while installing the DBD::mysql on Linux server.I downloaded the tar.gz file from cpan website from the extracted folder i'm giving perl Makefile.PL

perl Makefile.PL Can't locate Devel/CheckLib.pm in @inc (@inc contains: /root/PERL_DBI_DBD/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at Makefile.PL line 12. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 12.

Can you please help to resolve the issue.

Thanks, Kiran

This is not the correct procedure to install a CPAN module. It's recommended to use cpan or cpanm which will follow the correct procedure. https://metacpan.org/pod/DBD::mysql::INSTALL#Manual-installation misses some steps: install configure prerequisites listed in META.json, run Makefile.PL, install build, test, and runtime prequisites listed in MYMETA.json, then the rest of the normal install process listed there.
