Preparing a test report for CPAN-Reporter-0.43
Couldn't read CPAN::Reporter configuration file
'/private/var/root/.cpanreporter/config.ini': File
'/private/var/root/.cpanreporter/config.ini' does not exist
CPAN::Reporter requires an email-address in the config file.
Test report will not be sent. See documentation for configuration
details.
config.ini is not in "/private/var/root/.cpanreporter/config.ini"
but in
my home directory. how to correct this ?
This is on a Mac right? Were you logged in as root when you installed
it? /private/var/root is root's home directory.
Ideally you should run CPAN as you rather than as root. Configure
cpan to use sudo to gain adequate privileges for make install or ./
Build install:
make_install_make_command [sudo make]
mbuild_install_build_command [sudo ./Build]
If you do that and reinstall CPAN::Reporter you should find that it
looks for its ini file in your home dir.
