I'm sorry if this appears twice. I sent it once, but I don't believe I was subscribed to the list at the time!
I forgot to mention my main question: how do I download and install AppConfig? I'm trying to install bugzilla on Windows XP 2003 and the installation procedure says that I need to install AppConfig. So I point my browser at http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/5.6plus/ and right mouse click on AppConfig.ppd (I'm using IE 6 as my browser). This saves an AppConfig.xml file! Hmmm. I try the "ppm AppConfig.ppd" but that command does not work. (No surprise since I downloaded a XML file instead of a ppd file). I tried looking for AppConfig at http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/5xx-builds-only/ but that does not have AppConfig. I found an AppConfig.zip by searching with google and unzipped it (Apconfig.zip). Then I typed "perl Makefile.PL" and that seemed to work. Then I type make and it says Makefile:683: *** missing separator. Stop. Here are the fragments from the makefile. I inserted the line numbers: Line 166: PM_TO_BLIB = lib/AppConfig/File.pm \ Line 167: $(INST_LIB)\AppConfig\File.pm \ Line 168: lib/AppConfig/CGI.pm \ Line 169: $(INST_LIB)\AppConfig\CGI.pm \ Line 170: lib/AppConfig/State.pm \ Line 171: $(INST_LIB)\AppConfig\State.pm \ Line 172: lib/AppConfig.pm \ Line 173: $(INST_LIB)\AppConfig.pm \ Line 174: lib/AppConfig/Args.pm \ Line 175: $(INST_LIB)\AppConfig\Args.pm \ Line 176: lib/AppConfig/Sys.pm \ Line 177: $(INST_LIB)\AppConfig\Sys.pm \ Line 178: lib/AppConfig/Getopt.pm \ Line 179: $(INST_LIB)\AppConfig\Getopt.pm Line 676: # --- MakeMaker pm_to_blib section: Line 677: Line 678: pm_to_blib: $(TO_INST_PM) Line 679: @$(PERL) "-I$(INST_ARCHLIB)" "-I$(INST_LIB)" \ Line 680: "-I$(PERL_ARCHLIB)" "-I$(PERL_LIB)" -MExtUtils::Install \ Line 681: -e "pm_to_blib(qw[ <<pmfiles.dat ],'$(INST_LIB)\auto','$(PM_FILTER)')" Line 682: Line 683: $(PM_TO_BLIB) Line 684: << Line 685: @$(TOUCH) $@ Line 686: Thanks, Siegfried
