cpan

Hi,

I have just installed ActivePerl 5.8.8, build 820, and I have tried to use
the cpan shell.

What is that warning about Ruby?
Why cpan tries to use a non existing command?
What can I do to avoid that "undefined subroutine" error?
(I have previously installed the latest version of Compress::Zlib I could
find in a ppm repository).

In ActivePerl 5.8.8 build 819 I couldn't make Net::SFTP to work. Do you know
if it is it working in this last build?

Thank you.

Here are the errors:

D:\Documents and Settings\octavian>cpan

Thank you.

Why would you use cpan to install DBI when it is available via ppm ?

Hard to say what your problem is however, but it sounds like it might be
issues with either you Perl installation or your environment.

Regarding Net::SFTP, I suggest trying it yourself. If you have problems
try posting what they are. Perhaps somebody here can help, if you
provide sufficient information.
