I don't know why you would get this error about /windows/TEMP/... not existing, especially since you said earlier that other ppm installs went OK ... Does installing from the command line as 'ppm install HTML-Embperl.ppd' (ie, not from within the ppm shell) work? As Gerald suggested, if you're running an older version of ActivePerl, it might help to upgrade - I know that the ppm client in some earlier versions didn't work as advertised. best regards, randy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
