Installation note for HTML::DBTable. ==================================== To install this module # perl Makefile.PL # make # make test # make install DBIx::DBSchema note. =========== This module use the DBIx::DBSchema module to get DB schema. But DBIx::DBSchema version 0.22 doesn't know "ENUM" MySQL type and so, this module (and DBIx::DBSchema too) doesn't work with MySQL table that have "ENUM" fields in its. I notify this bug to DBIx::DBSchema owner but, untill he doesn't have time to patch its module, you can apply my patch DBIx_DBSchema_with_enum.patch manually to DBIx::DBSchema. Install DBIx::DBschema and then execute this command patch -P1 < DBIx_DBSchema_with_enum.patch in the directory where DBIx::DBSchema is installed (for example this directory is /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/DBIx/DBSchema on my system). If you use CPAN module to install DBIx::DBSchema version 0.22 you can be frustrating by the fact that this module doesn't install owing to test errors. I'm apologized about this problem by this module isn't mine. You can bypass this forcing installation with the command cpan> force install DBIx::DBSchema I have see no problem with this.
