MT Installation - mt-check.cgi

[timwes]

First of all; kudos to the ***** folks on one-day activiation. I've spent the past couple hours uploading my site to their servers, and once the DNS change goes through, I think I'm gonna be very happy; especially after doing a side by side speed comparison with my current host..

 

Anyway, on my site, I've had movable type. No MySQL at the last place; so I figured I'd set it up using MySQL over here. However, I'm getting an error when running the mt-check.cgi..

 

DBD::mysql...

Your server does not have DBD::mysql installed. DBI and

DBD::mysql are required if you want to use the MySQL database

backend. Please consult the installation instructions for help

in installing DBD::mysql.

 

I'm too tired to look into this much more; is this something you folks have to install, or am I missing something?

 

Thanks in advance...

Ahh, you must not be on server 4.

 

I had the same issues when I was setting up MT. It's not anything you can install yourself. Just submit a help desk ticket and it will be taken care of promptly.

 

Happy blogging.

Thanks...by the way, it was a thread on the topic where you were helping somebody else that helped me troubleshoot...I don't really blog with it much, but it is an easier way to update and keep friends and family informed...

Oh, get some sleep!!!

Thank you...all set now. Now I'm just awaiting my DNS changes so my domain points to you instead of my old host...nice work all around on your part. I'm impressed so far!
