Need Help??

in reply to nmake, CPAN and Modules not listed in PPM

I've only tried using the CPAN a couple of times and it never worked for me either the error I've gotten is as follows:

Makefile:653: *** missing separator.  Stop.
  c:\MinGW\bin\make.exe  -- NOT OK
Running make test
  Can't test without successful make
Running make install
  make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
Running make for A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-1.63.tar.gz
  Is already unwrapped into directory \perl\.cpan\build\CPAN-1.63\.

  CPAN.pm: Going to build A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-1.63.tar.gz

Makefile:680: *** missing separator.  Stop.
  c:\MinGW\bin\make.exe  -- NOT OK
Running make test
  Can't test without successful make
Running make install
  make had returned bad status, install seems impossible

If this information could lead to a solution I would like to hear it too.
