Hi Anonymous Monk.

That command is correct but the module doesn't seem to be stored in that specific repository. I would suggest adding a few more (please see below):

From your system prompt, type 'ppm'. At that prompt, type 'help repository'. This will display a wide variety of info on adding, deleting, etc. repositories.

Once you find a repository you would like to add, the command to issue (at the ppm prompt) is:

rep add "EZE" http://foo.com/MyPPMPackages
[download]

The "EZE" is what that specific repository is identified by and the URL is simply it's address. You are under no obligation to name any of your repositories "EZE". That was merely an example. Once you issue this command, you've also set this repository as the active one. Consult the help page for further information.

Hope this helps,
~Katie

Update: I forgot about the naming convention used by ActiveState repositories. strat++

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
