MySQL Proxy

connecting an Oracle DB via MySql proxy

Asked by peppaccio

Hi all,
first of all, my apologies for the non-oxford english.
Next, I'm newbie in MySql, and I've quite a problem.
I have to read data stocked in Oracle DBMSs in remote hosts, and I have to see them in a MySql schema (on my windows XP machine), possibly JOINing them.
I appreciated the excellent article by Giuseppe: http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/dbixmyserver.html
it's exactly what I was looking for! But, here is the problem: I'm not able to install the DBIx::MyServer module, apparently because there are no windows distributions. Am I wrong?
Note I succesfully installed ActivePerl 5.10.0 and PPM 4.05.

Ciao from Trieste, Italy!

Peppaccio,
this is not a MySQL-Proxy problem.
The article you mention uses a Perl proxy module, which is different from MySQL Proxy.
To solve your your problem, you may
a) Contact the module author and ask if a Windows distribution is available;
b) Build one yourself;
c) Use Linux.

Good luck

Giuseppe

Oh, sorry,
you are right: simply, I considered my problem was similar to that of #60968, and I forgot it wasn't a MySql-Proxy problem.
Thank you for the answer, anyway.
Ciao!
