Re^8: Quick way to set up columns with Class::DBI ?

I've now got Rose installed on my client but it's failing on my server due to DateTime. I noticed your mention of the "DateTime PPM hunt" - does this mean you know something I should know??

WRT DateTime only, so far the following modules have failed with CPAN but I have installed them using PPM:
Class::Singleton

Params::Validate

DateTime::Locale
DateTime::TimeZone
But DateTime itself doesn't seem to be on the AS repository and CPAN won't install it either. Stuck again...any pointers?

The "DateTime PPM hunt" recalls the time I tried to get DateTime installed on Windows and had to track down a PPM. I've long since forgotten where I found it. Maybe take a look at these mailing list posts to find some pointers. this one seems promising, assuming you know what to do with a "PPD file" (I don't). There's also this list of pre-built PPM files which appears to include DateTime and related modules. (Also available for "ActiveState 6xx," whatever that means). The DateTime page at that site has a bunch of PPM-related links at the bottom.	[reply]

Yes, this Winnipeg server is the bottom line best answer. It seems to have a lot more win32 packages ready to go than Active State. I've installed with very little problem. Thanks. Now, after 2 days getting it installed, I need to get coding...! 8o)	[reply]
