W2K 5.6.1 633 I'd like to automate the retrieval of a file from a website. While reading chapter 20 (Web Automation) of the Perl Cookbook, I ran across reference to the "libwww-perl" suite of modules" Reading further, it looks like there are several other modules I may need (Crypt::SSLeay amongst others, as the site is password protected).. Still more reading seems to indicate that all these web related modules can be brought down in a bundle... Below is what I've tried, not much luck getting an install. Any help appreciated...
It appears that it's not part of the core distro: ppm> query LWP Querying target 1 (ActivePerl 5.6.1.633) No matches for 'LWP'; see 'help query'. ppm> query www Querying target 1 (ActivePerl 5.6.1.633) No matches for 'www'; see 'help query'. Using ppm3 search, I found this: ppm> search libwww Searching in Active Repositories 1. libwww-perl [5.48] libwww-perl cookbook But an install attempt yields: ppm> install libwww-perl Error: PPD for 'R:/inetpub/wwwroot/www2.activestate.com/PPMPackages/5.6- plus/libwww-perl.ppd' could not be found. perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP'... produces the following: C:\>perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP' Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1.
