I am trying to install PAR on Solaris 2.6 running Perl 5.8.0. I am getting the following error:
# perl Makefile.PL *** ExtUtils::AutoInstall version 0.54 *** Checking for dependencies... [Core Features] - File::Temp ...loaded. (0.13) - Compress::Zlib ...loaded. (1.32 >= 1.3) - Archive::Zip ...loaded. (1.09 >= 1) - Module::ScanDeps ...loaded. (0.33 >= 0.32) - PAR::Dist ...loaded. (0.06 >= 0.05) *** ExtUtils::AutoInstall configuration finished. Fetching 'PAR-0.76_98-sun4-solaris-5.8.0.par' from ftp.cpan.org... Illegal seek Fetching failed: No compiler found, won't generate 'script/parl'! Writing Makefile for PAR What exactly does the "Illegal seek" and "No compiler found" mean? I am able to compile and install other perl modules just fine. This is the latest version (0.76_98). I am able to install PAR fine on a different machine running Solaris 8, and perl 5.6.1. thanks, -Randy | Randy Carpenter http://www.rune.net | The Rune Network Wapakoneta, OH -------------------------------------------------
