Hi all

I had Activestate Perl 5.8.2 installed and runnig quite well for more then a year now. I installed a demo of Komodo, and then uninstalled it. After that, the ppm just stopped installing.

I can search the repositories, but if I issue a install command, the ppm fails with the following error:

 

ppm> install Net::Telnet

Searching for 'Net::Telnet' returned multiple results. Using 'search' instead...

 

Searching in Active Repositories

  1. Net-Telnet           [3.03] Interact with TELNET port or other TCP ports

  2. Net-Telnet-Cisco     [1.10] automate Cisco management

  3. Net-Telnet-Netscreen [1.01] interact with a Netscreen firewall

ppm> install 1

Package 1:

Error: PPM::PPD constructor called with undef ppd

$VAR1 = 'PPM::Installer';

$VAR2 = 'C:/Perl5.8/site/lib/PPM/Installer.pm';

$VAR3 = 151;

$VAR4 = 'PPM::PPD::new';

$VAR5 = 1;

$VAR6 = 1;

$VAR7 = undef;

$VAR8 = undef;

$VAR9 = 2;

$VAR10 = '            ';

 

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, tried an upgrade and clean install of 5.8.4. The problem persists. I tried installation on a clean machine, and everything works fine.

Please help, how can I maje ppm work well again, I’m truly pissed

 

Regards,

Bozhidar
