But the file exists within RSLOVERS/Dot-v1.0.0.tar.gz, path being Dot-v1.0.0/Dot.pm. And it contains the package and version statements: package Dot; our $VERSION = v1.0.0; I retried to run the indexer and got the same result. May I ask for more eyeballs to suggest a solution? The only thing that appears really problematic is the use of a v-string as the version number. This is not recommended practice. I recommend reading up on that in http://www.dagolden.com/index.php/369/version-numbers-should-be-boring/ > Is there any way to solve this problem? Since I could not fix the issue in the indexer's code, I manually gave you permissions on the 'Dot' namespace. Please make another upload attempt with a better $VERSION line and let us know whether it works now for you. Regards && Sorry for the inconvenience, -- andreas
