Excellent - thank you for that!
I installed the developers tools, got rid of the config.pm file (as
suggested above) - started again logged in as root, had to force
install... but then it worked.
Thank you for your help

I have read through this thread as have had similar issues...
I've tried logging on to the root account to install the Glue
AppleScript. However when I do this (whether logged in as me or as the
root user) I get the message:
--NOT OK
Running make test
Can't test without successful make

Hi simong
I am no expert with these things either, but have you installed the
Apple Developer XTools? These are not installed in Mac OS X by
default, but you can install them from your original OS X install disc.
I think that they are needed to install 'make'.
Worth a try! Good luck.

Glad I could help. It would be great to know if this 'root' thing is
the answer, or just some odd random system fluke. Maybe others who

Hi dabloss
I have just managed to get iTunesUpdate working on my G5 Mac (OS X
10.4.8) after having very similar problems to you with getting the
Mac::AppleScript::Glue to install using CPAN. I also tried the
DarwinPorts link that you showed but this didn't work either.
What finally worked for
YEAH!
Whaleoil, I've been fighting with this installation for so many weeks
and YOU did find the solution. I just follow your instruction in the
root instalation and it seems necessary to reconfigure the CPAN.
I damn report success! Works great.
Thank you so much. And thanks to James and
I'm not sure abou that but indeed, there was a warning message as I
entered in the CPAN:

There seems to be running another CPAN process (pid 347).

I'm going to guess that you've installed the module as yourself,
(/Users/bendabloss/.cpan/Metadata) but SlimServer is looking for
modules installed system wide (/Library/Perl).
Did you do this before running any cpan commands?
sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell

Hi,
Sounds like you're nearly there.
What you need to do now is stop your slimserver process and start it
from the terminal window, with debugging arguments: slimserver.pl
--d_startup --d_plugins
This should print out any remaining issues with the plugin.

Hie Gov,
I did finally managed to install mac::apllescript::glue on the cpan

Hello Govardha,
So did you manage to setup itunesupdate on your new intel imac? i heard
the 1.8.0 of itunesupdate works fine with itunes 7.0.1. It still doesn't
work for me...
Is it necessary to instal the perl.ppc stuff?
Can i have the 1.8.0 version put in the existing plugin directory or do

Hello Dabloss,
I did not have to do the perl.ppc anymore. I had to do that setup in
the past in my brother's Intel CoreDuo iMac as he had transferred
settings/apps/docs from his old iMac G4. Hence, the issue with
disparity of architecture etc and the ensuing issues and my hack to
resolve the

My friend and I have done verything you describe. it was all ok until i

Hello Dabloss,
I will check in my setup to see what version of stuff that I have
running. I will probably will have time on sunday to check things out.
I did not run into so much difficulty to set things up. It was very
straightforward(I was surprised myself).
May be it helps if you can
Hello Dabloss,
I had sold my previous G5 computer and was without a Mac for the last
month+. I finally received a new intel iMac and should have
iTunesupdate setup as soon as James updates it for iTunes 7. From a
post that I read, James is waiting for iTunes 7.0.1 to be released
before he
Great.
I'll keep an eye on that thread so.

Hie govardha,
I'm desperate as I've been trying to instal (since a
month!)itunesupadte on my new macbook (mac os X last version).
Problem: i'm not familiar at all with neither mac, the terminal or
perl.
A friend and I have tried everything you described:
-Installed the itunesupdate in the hidden
Considering I find iTunesupdate to be quite a neat plugin and my need to
get it working in the x86 based Mac OS X, I dug around a bit more on
getting Mac::AppleScript to compile. Any body else with any thoughts
please chime in.
I found a user post a similar question in the Apple forums and here
Greetings all!,
I report success. Using the procedure given above and creating a
slim version of perl and further modifying slimserver.pl to use that
instead(by changing the first line of the file to show
#!/usr/bin/perl.ppc -w), I am able to run Slimserver along with
iTunesupdate just fine.
It looks like I found the culprit. Here are some snippets when I enable
debugging for plugins. It seems like I need to recompile the
Mac::AppleScript bundle for the Intel architecture. Now my task is to
find out how that is done. Any thoughts appreciated once again.
