Thats actually a really good idea, We do use alot json stuff here, this might be a simpler way for me to do this, because I'd like to create 2 versions where I can run one on my machine, then use another to reference the database, but still not sure if I could reference mysql database on my local machine. i'll post more data once I get that connection working. This is what I have so far though.

    my $database = "asterisk";
    my $user = "root";
    my $host = 192.168.8.50;
    my $password = 123;

    my $dbhA = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$database,$host","$password") o
+r die "Couldn't connect to database: ".DBI->errstr;

using DBI What would you recommed DBI vs DBD::mysql?

DBI is the plumbing; DBD::mysql is the fitting. You need both. From the doc for DBD::mysql (plus your error handling): `my $dsn = "DBI:mysql:database=$database;host=$hostname;port=$port"; my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, $user, $password) or die "Couldn't connec +t to database: ".DBI->errstr;` [download] Set up all those variables then use that exact code snippet and it should work for you. Hope this helps! The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply] [d/l]

Yeah, that helped alot, I was trying to find an example where they use the dsn in the connect statement, wasn't sure I was doing it right since it kept failing, probably just need to make sure its got the right credentials since we have like 5 different servers for similar things.	[reply]
