I have installed full FEDORA 9 on my system.

such as MYSQL, etc.
Now,
How to follow the notes of scratch installation of vicidial.

I'm trying to install but when i installing perl modules , DBD-MYSQL is not compiling when we try to install manually.

when i try to install by CPAN> prompt, gives some messages YAML is not installed.

Please help me.

Thanks & regards

SCRATCH INSTALL was designed for Slackware not Redhat-family distributions. I would recommend using Slackware or making sure you install all development packages and cpan modules using yum.

Also, I do NOT recommend using Fedora/Redhat/CentOS.

If you MUST use Redhat, then your best bet would be to go to a forum that supports CPAN and see if they can help you complete that portion of the install on Redhat. They probably can. But remember that when you are complete there, you will still have to deal with sound quality issues with a "generic" kernel, and that can be time consuming and expensive. And that's assuming you get that far before running out of money (there are a lot of components required to make Vicidial run smoothly).

If this is your first box, you are MUCH better off beginning with VicidialNOW or a SCRATCH install from the directions unless you are an Expert in Redhat.

I have implemented vicidialnow 5 to 6 locations, it is working fine.
But now i want to install vicidial scratch installation.

have you considered doing the scratch installation on the OS they list in the scratch installation? that will make you much more familiar with a scratch installation and then when you try RedHat, you may be more able to do so. Otherwise, you'll need to find support for RedHat now. I think if someone here were able to answer your question, they'd have dropped in on you already, so honestly your best bet is to use slackware. (I use Gentoo, and it seems to work very nicely here, too.)

I'm sure there are directions for CPAN on RedHat, but I'm not seein' a response here, so perhaps someone on a CPAN or RedHat forum will be able to lead you in the right direction.

If you have several vicidial's running, I'd think you'd go slackware, but if you have a client who wants Redhat, that's my advice. Hope it helps.
