Note that 3.00_09 is a developer release, and CPAN won't install it by default. The AuthorizeNet submodule has relied on developer releases of Business::OnlinePayment for a long time now. I simply resort to installing 3.15 of AuthorizeNet, which still serves us well.

    Could you please elaborate on that?   Thanks.

      Developer releases use non numeric characters in release numbers, like Business-OnlinePayment-3.00_09. They're released to be tested. If you visit http://search.cpan.org/~ivan/Business-OnlinePayment-3.00_09/ you will see in red ** DEVELOPER RELEASE **. cpan install Business::OnlinePayment nor cpanp i Business::OnlinePayment will not install a development release.
      In addition to what the friendly unnamed person said above, I install the older version like so:
      cpan IVAN/Business-OnlinePayment-AuthorizeNet-3.15.tar.gz
      This works as long as the older version is still on CPAN. Otherwise you'd have to go to BackPAN, but I've never needed to do that.
