I've just installed dbi on a new host.  The install seemed to go 
well...--with mysql, etc. No errors.

I'm getting this error trying to connect.

* is not a class/module*

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi/dbi.rb:490:in `load_driver'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi/dbi.rb:392:in `_get_full_driver'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi/dbi.rb:372:in `connect'
/usr/local/www/test.daspeachhaus.com/www/default.rbx:12
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/apache/ruby-run.rb:70:in `load'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/apache/ruby-run.rb:70:in `handler'

Here is my file:

#>default.rbx

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby18/

begin

    require 'cgi'
    cgi = CGI.new
    cgi.header('content-type'=>'text/html')
   
    puts '<html><body>'

    require 'dbi'
    DBI.connect("dbi:Mysql:database:host",'usr','pwd')
   
   
    puts '</body></html>'

rescue Exception
   
    $stdout.cancel
   
    se = '<b>' + $!.to_s + '</b><p/>' + [email protected]('<br/>')
   
    puts <<-EOS
        <html>
        <body>
        #{se}
        </body>
        </html>   
    EOS

end

Any ideas where I might look to figure this out?

BTW : For anyone looking for a ruby host, you _might_ want to check out 
hub.org. They use a virtual machine...meaning.
1) you dont have to worry about sharing the interp w/other hosts
2) you have root access

But they do not have a lot of experience w/ruby.

thank you for any help,
