in thread cpan module installation in strawberry perl

Your forward progress seems to be stopped right now at a place that's not far from the beginning. When I see

C:\path to my folder\Perl scripts>

with spaces in the path, I think it's just waiting to break. I might start over without spaces.

    I edited the output from the Windows command line window using Notepad++, replacing my real path with this made-up path name.

    Everyone's path is different. As long as my machine knows where Strawberry Perl is, it matters not what particular path I execute my scripts from, as long as they can find the files that they need. In this case, it is just an installation.

    I showed my attempt to install this module, because the original author of this thread was using Strawberry Perl and so do I, so our installations are virtually the same. In fact, I used Sandboxie, so as not to affect my real installation.
