This has been covered extensively in the mailing list.  Search for DBI, DBD
or DSN and you should find detailed answers.   In a nut shell, your PERL
installation does not have DBI/DBD correctly installed and interchange
cannot make a connection to MySQL.  You must have a correctly functioning
DBI/DBD setup before you can run interchange using MySQL.
