Being able to 'see' the files is the permissions on the directories. please review the directory not the files.

This only happens for user accounts other than root, and admin users. Could it be that user account created other than root, and admin have some restricted access ? There must be something for these users that is preventing it to see the new changes made in that directory. The directories where I installed the new modules are part of @INC . Any other clues for me to try ?? Thanks Louis. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

>Can you reproduce the *exact* error message you get from perl, in its >entirety pls. >(I've lost the original thread ... what module are you trying to install?) I am trying to install LWP::Simple, and MIME::Base64, on my dedicated server that run red hat Linux 7.1 OS. I installed them as root by manually going to /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0 created the directories for these modules, set permissions to 755, and then uploaded the .pm packages in the proper places. I know this is not how CPAN says to install modules. But I have installed some when I was using a shared server, and was installing them this way on my own web space, and it worked fine. I don't think that the approach I took to install is the cause of my problems, but I am no expert. Anyway my problem is that for user accounts, other than root and admin, that I created before I installed these new modules, when I go to /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0 at the user account shell I do not see the directory "LWP", and "MIME" that I created. Perl still complains about "Simple.pm" not found in @INC when I try to run my script. I can see the new directories and modules, when I go to the directory as user admin, and root. Do user accounts use a seperate partition for the Perl directories ?

Then I would suggest you install the modules using the suggested technique: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install > at the user account shell I do not see the directory "LWP", and "MIME" that > I created.
