I'm trying to install DBI and DBD and am running into problems.
Using cpan-mac (properly installed, as far as I can tell) and MacPerl
5.6.1a2 I'm getting the following error when dropping
DBI-1.08-bin-2-MacOS.tar.gz on installme.plx:
Compression not available at Dev:Pseudo line 19
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at Proust:Desktop
Folder:MacPerl Ÿ:site_perl:Archive:Tar.pm line 708.
line 708 is the last line of this sub:
sub read {
my ($self, $file) = @_;
$self->{_data} = [];
$self->{_handle} = gensym;
open $self->{_handle}, ref ($file) ? "<&". fileno ($file) : "<" . $file
or goto &_drat;
$self->{_data} = _read_tar (_get_handle ($self->{_handle}),
sysseek $self->{_handle}, 0, 1);
return scalar @{$self->{_data}};
}
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but my experience with Macperl is
less than my experience with perl on *nix...
Bill
