Yesterday I went to upgrade a perl module to the version recommended by ASSP. 
Unfortunately this version of the module required Perl 5.10 and I was running 
5.8.8. I knew that 5.10 is the recommended Perl for ASSP, so thought I'd 
upgrade Perl.

What a mistake!

I installed it but didn't compile it for threads, so ASSP wouldn't start. I 
installed it again, compiled for threads, but now I have Perl installed all 
over the place.

For example, I have:

/bin/perl
/bin/perl5.10.1
/usr/bin/perl
/usr/bin/perl5.10.1
/usr/bin/perl5.8.8

/bin/perl is threaded. I think /usr/bin/perl is unthreaded.

When I try to start ASSP, using: sudo /bin/perl /Applications/assp/assp.pl 
/Applications/assp/

I get:

Can't locate loadable object for module HTML::Parser in @INC (@INC contains: 
/System/Library/Perl/5.10.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level

/Library/Perl/5.10.1 /Library/Perl/5.8.8 /Library/Perl

147.
Compilation failed in require at /Applications/assp/assp.pl line 94.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /Applications/assp/assp.pl line 94.

I've tried downloading HTML::Parser using: sudo /bin/perl/cpan HTML::Parser but 
it still doesn't work.

Is there any way to remove all installations of perl and start again?

Any other suggestions?

Mac OS 10.5.8.

Sorry for being off-topic, but I'm no Perl expert.

Thanks,

James.
