Randy,

I tried to use your repository, but it outputs error like this:
C:\>ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/www-mechanize.ppd
Error: No valid repositories:
Error: 401 Authentication required
Error: 401 Authentication required

I have set the proxy along with my userID and password. Please
help...

Have you checked the ActivePerl docs on ppm that discuss
proxy settings? Or the archives of this mailing list for
similar problems? Does anything there help?

I assume this isn't a problem with just our repository,
and that, for example, you'd have similar problems
connecting to another?

Randy,

thanks for your help.

I have looked into ActiveState docs on proxy and in mailing list but still to no avail. So I ended using different network that has no proxy server, deleted all the proxy setting, and installed the modules. By the way, are you planning to have Win32::IE::Mechanize soon in your repository? Thanks once again.

I assume the proxy problem appears for all repositories?

Another option is to grab the ppd file directly from
   http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/
as well as the corresponding archive from
   http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/x86/
(with names like, respectively, WhatEver.ppd and
WhatEver.tar.gz), edit the ppd file to reflect the locally
saved location of the .tar.gz file, and then install
locally:
   C:\> ppm WhatEver.ppd

As for Win32-IE-Mechanize, not all the tests passed
(which explains why it's not in ActiveState's repository);
however, I put up a ppm package of it in our repository.
