I use force install all the time to push past the make test failure. The make test stage may bomb but the make install should still work! The CPAN module builds a module by basically running these four commands with suitable arguments: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install The force command really just means it does make install after the make test no matter what gets returned. If this didn't work for you then something else is up... because that is how I installed Template on the last two boxes I put it on. Can you try that force again? How does it bomb? In my case, thanks to locale settings it would bomb on date calcs and on that format %S AFAIR and nothing else. And all I did was a force to get it going again. If the _make_ is failing then the whole thing will bomb, but that is usually an important clue that people don't miss. :) --mark mills Xodiax Engineering _______________________________________________ templates mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.template-toolkit.org/mailman/listinfo/templates
