Are you sure? Have you tried: Your_prompt> perldoc Storable at the command line? If the documentation is there, the functionality probably is also. You can also make at least a quick and dirty check for functionality itself by: Your_prompt> perl -MStorable If Perl can not load Storable.pm, it will squack when the use-module switch for Storable is specified on the command line. > There is no binary available. > I downloaded v2.04, v2.08, v2.10 from CPAN and ran each Better to use CPAN--even if it's broken, which mine is. Even crippling along it seems to get the job done on modules for which no ppm is available. Try: perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan> install Storable You mentioned the version of the module you downloaded, but have not told us what Perl version you are running. What leads you to believe that Storable is not available in your installation? Have you done much of the low-level installation approach you describe above? It is usually not good for your Perl installation, unless you have a very comprehensive understanding of its structure. Use ppm first. If ppm fails, try using CPAN. Only if neither of the built-in installation facilities is successful should you resort to hand installation. I'd suggest first making sure that the module is not loaded. If not, please post again and let us know what Perl version you are running.
