Hi, the module itself is not failing to install; one of the dependencies (Test2::Plugin::NoWarnings) it has for testing is failing: see this bug report. You can force the install and/or install without testing, either for the module you want, or for the dependency (although the latter may not solve the problem; could be that the test is failing because the test module doesn't work on Windows). See the doc for your CPAN client. Hope this helps! The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply]

I got it fix by forcing the installation `perl -MCPAN -e "CPAN::Shell->notest('install', 'DateTime::Format::Strptime')`	[reply] [d/l]

It doesn't appear as though there are any test failures for the DateTime::Format::Strptime distribution, and I see you're running Strawberry (installed) on Windows. I can't replicate here. Could you please post the full output of the `perl -V` (Capital "V") command and I'll do some further testing? Also, perhaps try the install one more time. It could have been simply a one-off glitch: `cpanm DateTime::Format::Strptime`. -stevieb	[reply] [d/l] [select]
