Andrew,
I have had the same problem on many platforms. I have found
Test::Reporter::Transport::Socket to be far more stable - I
have never had that error since I moved over.
If you're determined to stick with Test::Reporter::Transport::Metabase,
sometimes it could be fixed with:
force install Metabase::Fact
force install Test::Reporter
force install CPAN::Reporter
force install Test::Reporter::Transport::Metabase
force install Metabase::Client::Simple
then quit the CPAN shell and restart it. That fixed about 50% of the
times (until it fell over again...)
