in thread ActiveState repo problem

Hi Marto, thx for your quick reply. I know that repos is for special versions (in my case it should be http://ppm4.activestate.com/MSWin32-x86/5.14/1402/), but the domain is unavailable, too. My aim is to create an offline repo from the modules of AS Perl 5.14. I also use the Bribes and the Trouchelle repos, but none of them contain all modules.

    Many of the older ppm repos are defunct, or only support old versions. Use whatever version of Strawberry you want and use minicpan to create an off line version of cpan.

      Thanks for the tip. I'll try that.

        And please do get back to us if you have any trouble.
        ActiveState has outlived its usefulness (at least as regards builds of Perl), so you really need to follow the advice that marto offered.

        Cheers,
        Rob
