I also came across this problem. I settled on figuring out how to install Perl modules on the account I have at my web provider (good old pair). If a reinstall of ActiveState helps then I will go that route.
Installing Perl modules when you're not root
I hope this information is useful to any other Monks that want to install modules on a machine where they're not root -- or even if they are root, but don't want to install something system-wide. ps This node written Thursday 1015 February 28; please allow a few days for this information to mature before rushing ahead and using it .. no doubt there will be clarifications and corrections. Update 0830 Monday March 4: Thx to crazyinsomniac for also pointing out the CPAN module CPAN.pm which provides you with an automated way to get modules. Appropriate links are CPAN module page on CPAN and local CPAN manpage. I was aware of this but wanted to know about the nuts and bolts of the proper method .. but I will probably use CPAN the next time. --t. alex "There was supposed to be an earth-shattering kaboom!" --Marvin the Martian
