Carl Thanks for the advice, everyone. I ended up rolling back and trying again. If I install the modules myself from cpan, it works fine. If I let 'make' pull stuff in, it goes crazy! I noticed the latter is using cpanplus at least sometimes. I wonder if that's the difference? I could not find a place in the cpanplus configuration to add 'sudo' like I did with cpan. ___ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/

Re: [Catalyst] Where are my modules?
If you did a force-install at some point in the past, e.g. to get Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader installed, then you may have skipped some dependencies. Wiser folks than me can probably tell you how to get CPAN to recover to a more stable state, but it sounds like you'll have to follow the dependency chain by hand until then. That is, each missing module will require you to do a cpan Mod::Here to get it up to snuff. You may be doing this already, but if you use lib::local instead of your system perl libraries as root (or via sudo) then A) you won't break your system perl, 2) you won't need root permissions to update your library and 3) if the muses smile at you just right you might be able to migrate your whole cpan library to a new system when the time comes, with a simple file-copy. http://perl.jonallen.info/writing/articles/install-perl-modules-without-root Something we're running into is when Cpan module dependencies don't work out right, after migrating a project to a new system. Instead of being up and running in a matter of minutes (or hours if lots of compiling is needed) it's turning into a matter of days, sometimes weeks, to get all the dependencies straightened out. :( On Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 4:24 AM, Carl Franks fireart...@gmail.com wrote: On 17 March 2011 09:06, John M.

Re: [Catalyst] Where are my modules?
I generally address these problems by 'force'ing a test in the CPAN shell: force test Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader My reason is that 'force test' will fulfill the dependencies, downloading and testing them as needed. However, if you start with a 'force install' you could be back with the same problem, because it will install even if the dependencies fail. Once you get 'force test' to PASS, then you can do 'force install' (the 'force' is necessary because it's already installed, like you said). Then you should be working again.
