Need Help with XML::Parser

Running Perl 5.6.0 on AIX 5.1, Have installed Expat and XML::Parser
modules and run make test successfully, still get the following error
whenever I try use "use XML::Parser" even though Parser.pm is present.
Greatly appreciate any advice on how to procede (not a guru by any
stretch):

I assume that was skipped because the file is already there. If Parser.pm
is, in fact, in that location, then perl has no reason for being unable to
locate it.

Maybe the error is something else (I know nothing about AIX) ..... but I've
*never* seen perl report a "Can't locate ..." error *unless* the file it has
been asked to find is not present.

Cheers,
Rob

Re: Need Help with XML::Parser

Rob: Thanks for the response. You are correct in that the files were
skipped because they were already there. I had repeated the
installation process just to capture some of the log for posting. I am
certain the error is something else, but I have no idea what else could
it be. I was looking for some suggestions - hoping maybe someone had
encountered a problem similar to mine or just had an idea as to why
Perl would report that it couldn't locate the module. I run the
XML::Parser on another AIX system under Perl 5.005 without a problem.

If anyone has any thoughts, please respond. Thanks.

There's no case mismatch somewhere, is there ? .... eg. a directory in the
path named 'AIX' that should be named 'aix' or a file named 'parser.pm' that
should be 'Parser.pm' .... or somesuch ?

In what you showed us in your original, there's no evidence that such a
problem is at all likely - but it's the only other thing I can think of.

Cheers,
Rob

Re: Need Help with XML::Parser

Rob: Thanks once again for the response. I finally figured out the
problem - simple as permissions. Guess I was thrown by misleading
error message and primarily by the fact that I didn't have to change
any directory permissions with any other Perl modules that I installed
previously. The directories containing Parser.pm and Expat were set up
for owner rwx only and being that the installer is root, ...

Live and learn - I can't recall ever before seeing an instance where perl
has complained of being unable to *locate* when the problem was one of
permissions, but maybe I simply don't recall correctly.

Anyway ..... I've seen it now :-)
