The last time this happened, it was the ActiveState PPM server having problems. Merrill -----Original Message----- From: Brian McDonald [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2001 2:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: PPM problem Hi. I have used PPM before successfully. However, over the last couple days I have not been able to get it to work correctly. I am using ActivePerl 5.6.0.613 under Win98. The first issue is pretty basic. I type PPM at the DOS command line, get the PPM prompt and then type "search". I get no response -- no list of available packages... just a new PPM> prompt and an hourglass that takes some time to go away. Second, as I saw with another poster (30 Mar), I get this problem too: I said: ppm >PPM install SOAP-Lite PPM said: Install package 'SOAP-Lite?' (y/N): I said: y PPM said: Retrieving package 'SOAP-Lite'... Error installing package 'SOAP-Lite': Could not locate a PPD file for package SOAP-Lite >PPM Does anyone know what the problem is here?
