Perl Compile problems..

2005-10-31 Thread Travis Schwenke
I am new to Linux and trying to use some modules (even CGI.pm) and compile 
them for the Apache server I am playing with (educational purposes).  I am 
running Mandrivia 2006..

I am trying to compile a couple of modules and with both of them I get the 
same error.  I do:

perl Makefile.PL
make

then during the make process, I get

Manifying blib/man3/IO::String.3pm
Can't open blib/man3/IO::String.3pm for writing: Invalid argument
at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/ExtUtils/Command/MM.pm line 126
make: *** [manifypods] Error 22

I have tried two different ones and get the same error. The one thing I 
noticed is that NOTHING exists in the man3 directory. In the case of this 
one, a file called String.pm does exist in the blib/lib/io directory. Same 
thing for the other one, the .pm files exist in the blib/lib/Image 
directory.  Also, I did have to modify the manifest because of CAPS vs. 
small on directory names.  The makefile did seem to generate with no errors. 
make test gives no errors either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A.  Sorry if the post shows up multiple times.  First time using news from 
this machine.  Setup was messed, but I think they might have made it through 
once I fixed it.

B.  I FIGURED it out!  Running from a FAT32 drive and the directory/filename 
CASE was incorrect causing the files to not be created in directories it 
couldn't find.  Moved everthing to a different mount and it worked fine.

Time to ditch the FAT32 drive (well, reformat it).
