Hi all, We recently need to make changes to a Perl application compiled using PDK 4.12 build 404. We only have licence for PDK 4.12 so that's what we use. As far as I am aware, Active Perl 5.61 build 638 is the latest version that PDK 4.12 supports.
Problem is when we use PPM to get DBI and DBD-ODBC modules we hit an authentication required error: ppm> install DBI ==================== Install 'DBI' version 1.48 in ActivePerl 5.6.1.638. ==================== ==================== Install 'DBI' version 1.48 in ActivePerl 5.6.1.638. ==================== Error: error downloading ' http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/5.6/MS-Win32-x86-multi-thread/DBI-1.48.tar.gz': 401 Authorization Required It seem the package directories are now protected. So we tried adding a more recent repository but still no go: ppm> rep add "5.10 rep" http://ppm4.activestate.com/MSWin32-x86/5.10/1006/package.xml Repositories: [1] ActiveState PPM2 Repository [2] ActiveState Package Repository [3] 5.10 rep ppm> ppm> install DBI ==================== Install 'DBI' version 1.48 in ActivePerl 5.6.1.638. ==================== ==================== Install 'DBI' version 1.48 in ActivePerl 5.6.1.638. ==================== Error: Failed to download URL http://ppm4.activestate.com/MSWin32-x86/5.10/1006/package.xml/DBI.ppd: 404 Not Found Any pointers in getting the right version of DBI and DBD-ODBC packages will be much helpful. Thanks, Peter
