The magic command is o conf, not conf.

Personally, I would recommend going once through the setup of local::lib, which sets up CPAN_PREFIX and INSTALL_BASE properly.

The magic command is `o conf`, not `conf`. feeling daft According to CPAN's `r` command, I do not have local::lib installed.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Yes, I assumed so. Which is why I suggested that you install it and set it up :) See the bootstrapping technique to install it.	[reply]
