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

I am trying to perform a "install Bundle::LWP" but I keep getting problems when I get to robot/ua I get a HTTP server terminated. If I wait long enough, the tests will pass with 28% pass rate, but it will fail later on in the install also.

My question: Is there a way to bypass this, or is this a path problem or what? I have tried a few things and haven't found the way to fix this.

    If you just want to force an install even though you got errors in the test do a:
       force install Bundle::LWP
    
    in CPAN.
