I have a program that requires Mail::Mailer.pm. When I try to run it, I get: www:/usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin # ./mail2friend.pl Can't locate Mail/Mailer.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i586-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/i586-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at ./mail2friend.pl line 45. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./mail2friend.pl line 45.
However: www:/usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin # find / -name Mailer.pm /root/.cpan/build/MailTools-1.41/Mail/Mailer.pm /root/.cpan/build/MailTools-1.41/blib/lib/Mail/Mailer.pm /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mail/Mailer.pm So, it seems to me that what's happening is that CPAN installed Mail::Maker in a directory that's not being searched in the @INC array. When I try to install it using CPAN, I get: www:/usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin # perl -MCPAN -e "install Mail::Mailer" .... Mail::Mailer is up to date. This also happens if I force install. Previously, I had entered "o conf make_install_arg UNINST=1" so I believe that this should uninstall the module, then reinstall it. [Tangent: How do I check to make sure this variable is still correctly set?] My questions: How do I control which directory CPAN installs a module in? Is it a good idea to force this? Or: How do I change the directories in @INC? Is it a good idea to force this? Thanks in advance for your help. -Kevin Zembower ----- E.
