I had problem installing mods and getting them noticed. I went to http://search.cpan.org there I type in the mod I'm looking for and then download that bundle to my /tmp dir. gunzip and untar then read the README for info and install according to their instructions. Usually perl Makefile.pl make make test make install This fixed my problems with DBI, DBD and Mysql.
When I ran the perl -MCPAN -e shell tool and installed cpan I pretty much took the defaults since I installed Perl the same way. If you have perl in the non-default areas then you may want to pay particular attention to what is being asked during install. Hope this helps If anyone else notices a flaw please let me now. ej -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
