(It's my first time posting here, so the format might not be right, sorry.) I have been trying to install DBD::mysql on my macOS Catalina using cpan, but I have not succeeded yet. I used perlbrew, and tried mysql and mariaDB, but still no luck. Also, I've looked into different solutions online (Probably messed up a bit as well), but no luck as well, so I want to see if anyone can help. Thanks!

Configuring DBD-mysql-4.050
Running Makefile.PL
PLEASE NOTE:
For 'make test' to run properly, you must ensure that the
database user 'tingheithomas' can connect to your MySQL server
and has the proper privileges that these tests require such
as 'drop table', 'create table', 'drop procedure', 'create procedure'
as well as others.
mysql> grant all privileges on test.* to 'tingheithomas'@'localhost' identified by 's3kr1t';
You can also optionally set the user to run 'make test' with:
perl Makefile.PL --testuser=username
I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:
cflags (mysql_config) = -I/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/include/mysql
embedded (mysql_config) =
ldflags (guessed ) =
libs (mysql_config) = -L/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/lib -lmysqlclient -lssl -lcrypto
mysql_config (guessed ) = mysql_config
nocatchstderr (default ) = 0
nofoundrows (default ) = 0
nossl (default ) = 0
testdb (default ) = test
testhost (default ) =
testpassword (default ) =
testport (default ) =
testsocket (default ) =
testuser (guessed ) = tingheithomas
To change these settings, see 'perl Makefile.PL --help' and
'perldoc DBD::mysql::INSTALL'.
