Sample idea. remove .cpan directory and try again Richard Crawford wrote:
I'm trying to use the CPAN module to install new modules on my Solaris 9 server. I've logged in as root, and I've tried the following:
$ perl -MCPAN -e 'shell'
cpan> install HTML::Parse
...and this is what the output looks like:
Running install for module HTML::Parse

Shall I follow them and prepend them to the queue

Running make install
make had returned bad status, install seems impossible

Any ideas? I have gcc installed and the CPAN configuration is pointing to the gcc installation, so I'm not sure what the problem might be.
