in reply to Problem while installing module from CPAN on windows.

Hello kiranp, and welcome to the Monastery!

As marto noted, there is a problem with the module inc::Module::Install. This is usedd on line 4 of Makefile.PL, so on systems (such as mine) on which it’s not already installed, installation of the Speedometer module fails in the configuration phase.

But I wanted to point out that the main file, Speedometer.pm, is effectively empty. There are 136 lines, but these are mostly POD:

22:34 >perl -MO=Deparse Speedometer.pm
Semicolon seems to be missing at Speedometer.pm line 52.
package Speedometer;
sub BEGIN {
    require 5.006;
}
use File::Glob ();

22:35 >

Looks like something went wrong when uploading to CPAN?

Hope that helps,

      You seem to be ignoring advice, but I'll try again. The build.log tells you where the problems are. You don't have to keep uploading broken module after broken module to cpan to test this out, simply trying to install your own module from the command line will also fail. Please consider renaming your module. IMHO modules should only be released to cpan when they are ready, this one has many mistakes. Previously I've emailed you at your cpan address to make you aware of these issues. Please read and understand the replies you already have.

      Update your email just bounced:

      The error that the other server returned was:
554 5.7.1 <removed@cpan.org>: Recipient address rejected: Access denie
