failed tests for XML::DOM (was failed tests in cpan)

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

Dear brethren,

I tried to install XML::DOM from cpan, but I get an error because one of the tests for XML::Parser::PerlSAX fails (test 11 for stream). Unfortunately, I don't know how to find out what this means or how I can fix it. Is it a bad idea to force the installation (I would guess so)? Any suggestions?

Many thanks,

pike

Did you read the XML::DOM review on this site? It lists the valid combinations of XML::Parser and XML::DOM that can be used safely (and I just updated it with the latest version).	[reply]

The version of `XML::DOM` is 1.33, the version of `XML::Parser` is 2.30, so that should be OK according to your list... pike	[reply] [d/l] [select]
