[Codestriker-user] Installation question: DBD::mysql::db do failed: SESSION variable 'max_allowed_packet'

[Hadianto, V. <vic...@cr...>]

Hi,

Trying to install CodeStriker, I've followed all the instructions and
using the following: MySql + Apache on a workstation.

When I ran install.pl it throws me the following error:

C:\Program Files\codestriker\codestriker-1.9.8\bin>

As you can probably guess, my Perl knowledge is zero to none :) Can
someone please let me know what goes wrong here? 

Thanks,
