Module install problem - AppConfig

Module install problem - AppConfig

am 19.10.2005 20:04:55 von JLR

My original intent was to install the "Template-Toolkit-2.14.tar.gz"
but it complained that it needed "AppConfig-1.56.tar.gz"
so I down loaded that and attempted to install.
The following is the result with lots of bad tests!!!
Is this fixable and how?
Is there a PPM package for "AppConfig-1.56.tar.gz" and/or
"Template-Toolkit-2.14.tar.gz"

perl, v5.8.7 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
Running on Windows XP Pro.

I could not get perl make to work so I tried Microsoft "nmake".
Should I use some other "make" application?

Hmmm. What does this 'perl make' mean?

Hmmm. With Perl 5.8.6 under Win2K, I get:

C:\Perl-modules\AppConfig-1.56>nmake test

Your comment about 'perl make' worries me. I suggest you clean up and start=

again, with nmake.

As Ron mentioned in another reply, it is possible to
build the module using Microsoft's nmake, but if you'd
rather use a ppm package, we have one for both AppConfig
and Template-Toolkit at

Thanks!

ppm downloaded it from Uwinnipeg.
I now have some reading to do.

Again - Thanks!
