Hello,

I asked this question, and other than one response (thanks Owen!), things have been pretty silent on this issue.

As I am a recent subscriber, maybe this is not the place to post this type of a request.

Is there a better place that someone might aim me to resolve this issue?

Thanks for any replies,


You could try comp.lang.misc.perl

will do.


Does the problem occur with attempting to install just one particular
module or all modules?

As my collection of modules that I require grows, it starts with just the big ones, then I can't do the small ones, then at some point, I can't even do a 'reload index' with out the out of memory error.


What does 'top' say before you start cpan, what does it say after starting cpan?

Here is a 'CPAN shell started' before, and also the output during the 'reload index' execution, just a second or two before I get the out of memory error

   PID USERNAME  SIZE   RSS STATE  PRI NICE      TIME  CPU PROCESS/NLWP
 10503 root       11M   10M sleep   59    0   0:00:01 1.1% perl/1

   PID USERNAME  SIZE   RSS STATE  PRI NICE      TIME  CPU PROCESS/NLWP
 10503 root       39M   38M run      0    0   0:00:04  13% perl/1


Anything from Google?

Yes, I did an extensive search on Yahoo, Google and the CPAN archives. I ran across several hits where others had experienced the same problem. If any of those people were able to resolve it, they did not post their results on line, hence this post to a perl list.

Thanks again,

Jerry
