in thread Need help with module problem specific to sun-solaris

At the top of the test scripts is the line 

use lib qw(t/lib blib/lib blib/arch);

[download]

This is the build library made by make after you run 

%perl Makefile.PL
%make

[download]

I suspect you may have just untargzipped the module without performing the make step (you must have done perl Makefile.PL as this is when you get the kit complete message). Without running make there will be no blib and thus the inability of perl to find the module in @INC.

If you did perform the make step I would be very interested to know what is going on!

    Yes, I performed the correct steps, and installed it just like I always do, namely: 
    tar -zxvf Cgi-Simple-0.05.tar.gz
cd Cgi-Simple-0.05/
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test

    I just tried it again just to be sure, and it did the same thing again, so I am sure I did the same thing last week. I'd be happy to send you any output you need, just let me know.

      Hi erasei

      That is *very* strange for the reasons noted above. First could you download the 0.06 which now tests error free on Solaris. If you still get test failures because the modules can't be found then as well as the full output of make test the main- things of interest are what actually is in @INC and are the /blib dirs being written by make. Something like: 

      %make test >dump.txt
%ls * -Rl >>dump.txt

      [download]

      should help reveal the source of the problem. If you can send me the dump.txt file or post it here I would be grateful.

      cheers

        Looks like that new version did it :) 
        All tests successful.

        Worked 100% for both 5.005_03 and 5.8 on Solaris 2.8.
