Hi!
I had to rewrite these lines that way and that seems to have done the trick.. I
assumed that the problem was caused by an (apparent) call to the DOS/Windows copy
command with forward slahes instead of backslashes as it expects...
re:
# TODO after install (not done yet)
[ file => $mingw.'bin/libmySQL.dll', exec => "copy /Y \"c:\\Program
Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 5.0\\bin\\libmySQL.dll\" $dosmingw\\bin\\",comment =>
'post-mysql-install' ],
[ file => $mingw.'include/mysql.h', exec => "copy /Y \"c:\\Program
Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 5.0\\include\\*\" $dosmingw\\include\\" ],
[ file => $mingw.'lib/libmysql.lib', exec => "copy /Y \"c:\\Program
Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 5.0\\lib\\opt\\libmysql.lib\" $dosmingw\\lib\\" ],
I sent an email to the author about but I am unsure if he received it...
BTW, I am running Xp pro...
It faled elsewhere after that but I didn't have time to track it down and I was only
trying it for the fun of it... (-;
Have a nice day!
