I'm speaking from the linux background -- but the trouble shooting might overlap. I havn't used Active State very much. But again, trouble shooting could be very similar.

I would first ask if you're sure you don't have the perl module. It often happens that you might just not have the module in the proper path. Check your paths and make sure that you don't have the module.

Next, visit CPAN. While most of the modules on there are for linux, you will find a few for Windows. If you know specifically what the module is that you're missing, use the CPAN search (search.cpan.org) to find it. Type it in exactly the way the error message calls it.

As for placement. You can probably place the module in a directory relative to the root. For example, if you have a module called Radio::playlist, create a directory within your perl script's directory called "site/lib/Radio", and place playlist.pm within that directory. If you have a module called Bleh, you can place Bleh.pm right in that "site/lib/ root directory.

Hope this helps.
