Hi guys,
Firewall problems? Or config problems? Or both?
I've found that CPAN works when I run sudo perl -MCPAN etc, but not
when I run as root: macbox:/ root# perl -MCPAN. I find that very
strange, but hey, if it works as sudo, it works and that's all I need.
However, it doesn't work
You might want to take a look at that URL list. Try going to each
site by hand and see how long it takes to connect. Move your fastest
sites to the top of the list.

I feel like nobody's listening...
Look at your 'tar', 'unzip', 'lynx', and 'gzip' entries. They don't
actually include the name of the program.
Here are the equivalent ones from my config:
'gzip' = q[/usr/bin/gzip],
'lynx' = q[],
'tar' = q[/usr/bin/tar],
'unzip' = q[/usr/bin/unzip],
Hi all,
CPAN is being a pain in the ass, and I don't know what the problem
is. Here's an error message when I run install Bundle::XML.
Can't exec /usr/bin: Permission denied at /System/Library/Perl/
5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level/IO/File.pm line 176, FIN line 1.
Could not pipe[/usr/bin
That's strange. I ran CPAN with sudo perl -MCPAN etc etc and
everything worked fine. But here's another question: why did it work
w/ sudo but not as root (su)?

PS. Thanks Tommy

The way I log in as root is by running: sudo -s

Regarding the first error, I don't see how I can have a permissions
Hi John,
The permissions thing is a red herring.
Look more closely at the error message. It's trying to run a program
called /usr/bin. Look at your CPAN configuration (o conf in the
CPAN shell) to figure out why.
