HowTo - Tie::RDBM on Win32
From ASSPSMTP
Download
- (MUST be 0.91, newer versions contain a version of Tie-RDBM that will not run on win32)
Install
Extract Tie-DBI-0.91.tar.gz into a temporary folder.
Copy the file RDBM.pm from "<temporary folder>\lib\Tie" into your Perl install at "C:\Perl\site\lib\Tie" (you may have to create the Tie directory)
DBD-mysql dependency
This allows you to access mysql databases, without it you will get a nasty error in the maillog when ASSP starts.
ppm install DBD-mysql
Restart ASSP
Use the Services MMC or run these in a command window.
net stop asspsmtp net start asspsmtp
Check the maillog and you should see:
Jan-01-07 00:01:01 Tie::RDBM module version 0.70 installed - mysql usage available
And thats are far as this quick guide goes.
Requirements for actually using the mysql storage:
- Mysql server
- Database for ASSP to use.
- Mysql user for ASSP with rights to create tables.
