Re: CPANP (CPAN Plus) stopped working

I suspect it is a change in one of the CPAN index files that occurred today that is causing your problems.

You could turn on verbosity, just to be sure

CPAN Terminal> s conf verbose 1
[download]

If it is as I suspect, then upgrading to the fixed version of CPANPLUS (0.9136) I released today should solve the problem

C:\> lwp-mirror http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/B/BI/BINGOS/CPANPLUS-0.
+9136.tar.gz CPANPLUS-0.9136.tar.gz
C:\> ptar zxf CPANPLUS-0.9136.tar.gz 
C:\> cd CPANPLUS-0.9136
C:\> perl bin/cpanp-boxed

CPAN Terminal> i CPANPLUS
[download]

bingos, khen1950fx and AM: I have installed 0.9136 according to your instructions - here is the tail of the installation: Read more... (2 kB) Looks ok, I think. I then ran cpanp, and it seems to be working fine. That was pressurizing. (sigh of relief). Thank you for you investment of time and energy - Helen By the way: can cpanp install a module from a PPM repository?	[reply] [d/l]

I'm glad everything worked out in the end. It can't do PPM installs sorry. You should have included with DWIM a ppm commandline utility that should be able to.	[reply]

I tried to update (x) and it issued an error: You forgot to download a new CPANPLUS first like bingos showed You could even `cpan CPANPLUS` if your cpan is in working order	[reply] [d/l]
