Andy,

I have build 630 and I didn't get any XML libs in my.  I just recently
installed the XML::RSS ppm, and when I checked my ./Perl/site/lib tree under
/XML i have just the ::RSS stuff...No XML::Simple().  I'm betting it doesn't
come standard and you have to install it...

hth,

Subject: Really silly but fundamental error in XML:Simple - help!



I have an extremely simple Perl script (xmlread.pl):

     use XML::Simple;

That's it!

However every time I run it it fails immediatley with this -

Can't locate XML/LibXML.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib
C:/Perl/site/lib.) at S:\webs\sis\admin\util\common\xmlread.pl line 2.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at S:
\webs\sis\admin\util\common\xmlread.pl line 2.

The error  is correct - there is no LibXML.pm anywhere.

I have tried this with several machines now - running either Windows 2000
or XP Professional - both with longstanding working versions of Perl build
631 or with completely fresh Perl 631 installs.

XML::Simple - should run right out of the box shouldn't it?  Why is it
looking for XML/LibXML.pm which is missing? I thought  LibXML was a
completely different module and was not required for Simple or Expat etc.

Is build 613 broken?

All help appreciated
