Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, all. I am trying to install Inline::Java from a CPAN shell, and I get the following message:

cpan[4]> install Inline::Java Running install for module 'Inline::Java' The module Inline::Java isn't available on CPAN. Either the module has not yet been uploaded to CPAN, or it is temporary unavailable. Please contact the author to find out more about the status. Try 'i Inline::Java'.

Can anybody tell me what I'm missing?

    Inline::Java - maybe your CPAN index is out of date?

    Typing the "reload" or "force_reload" commands might make the CPAN client reload its indices.

    I had the same problem and had to resorted to

    cpanm PATL/Inline-Java-0.53.tar.gz

    PS: 64 bit Java won't work and don't forget to set JAVA_HOME!

      Thank you. This is exactly what I needed.
