I'm having some trouble getting Longview to work using Debian 7. Below is a bit of my longview.log. Any suggestions?
var/log/linode$ tail -100 longview.log

Perhaps the DBD::mysql perl module hasn't been fully installed,
or perhaps the capitalisation of 'mysql' isn't right.
Available drivers: DBM, ExampleP, File, Gofer, Proxy, Sponge.

Taking a look at the error messages you provided, it seems like you ran into 2 main issues:
install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't locate DBD/mysql.pm in @INC
Unable to access local server status for Apache at http://127.0.0.1/server-status?auto: 403 Forbidden
It looks like you are missing the mysql-perl library to get MySQL monitoring configured. Run the following to install it:
sudo apt-get install libdbd-mysql-perl
The 403 error you are getting indicates that Apache did not enable mod_status when Longview client was installed. You can try to fix this automatically with the below command, or reference Apache Server Manual Configuration for instructions on doing it manually.
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh linode-longview
