Perl and mySQL problems

I am NOT a good UNIX user so I try to use webmin as much as possible. I now ry to start up my Apache/PHP/mySQL for local webbrowsing. In fact the setup is working now and I can see my PHP with mySQL pages locally.

BUT Webmin is making some complaints:

In mySQL db controll I get the message:
Warning: The Perl modules DBI and DBD::mysql are not installed on your system, so Webmin will not be able to reliably access your MySQL database. Click here to install them now.

and then I click install and get the following error message after downloaded and trying to install:

" I see you're using perl 5.008 on darwin-thread-multi, okay.
Remember to actually *read* the README file!
Use 'make' to build the software (dmake or nmake on Windows).
Then 'make test' to execute self tests.
Then 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this working
directory before unpacking and building any DBD::* drivers.

Writing Makefile for DBI
sh: line 1: make: command not found"

Whats going on here :(

Click to expand...

I had similar trouble installing DBD::mysql using Webmin's perl module installer. You can do it by hand:
(I have root enabled, i don't know how you're setup.)
As root, run the command:
perl -MCPAN -e'shell'

Follow the instructions about setting up CPAN for the first time. You'll probably need to choose some download mirrors. I choose about 15 or so for redundancy. When you get to a '>' prompt, type:
install DBD::mysql

You'll need to be connected to the internet for this. It might say that it needs to install some prerequisite modules first-- answer 'y' to all these questions. If you installed MySQL into /usr/local/mysql, it should find the necessary libraries to compile. I hope this'll get you going. :D

No Go :(

Looks good

Ok I tried to install the whole DBI Package first and this is the return :(
