Hello,



Please wipe my account and restore to initial status.



I am attempting to run perl scripts on my account and having difficulty. Any
advice would be appreciated.



Thanks,

Your account has been reset. Please check your email for an email from no-reply@heliohost.org (not support@heliohost.org like this email) and click the link to continue with the reset process.

Regarding Perl. Are you trying to do Perl CGI or a long running Perl script that never exits like a bot or something?

[HelioHost]

Thank you. I am doing Perl CGI.



Any advice?

This what my development software requires on the web server.



Perl Runtime Environment (Perl version 5.14.2 or later)

Perl Modules

* DBI - Database Interface Module (version 1.6 or later)
* DBD:: MySQL - MySQL Database Driver Module (version 4.0.2 or later)
* JSON::PP - Pure Perl JSON Encoder/Decoder Module (version 4.00 or
later)

I tried to install DBD::MySQL for you and got the error

DBD::mysql requires MySQL 8.x for building. Version reported by mysql_config --version: 10.6.17

So it seems like it needs an older version of MySQL, which we obviously aren't going to downgrade on Tommy so you either need to figure out how to use MariaDB 10.6.17 with your Perl script, or get a VPS on which you can install whatever version of MySQL that you want.
