I'm hoping that this is something obvious, but frankly it's a little puzzling for me. This is a server I set up last month, and now that it's time to expand the library of Perl modules, I'm having an unexpected error from cpan:

Giving up on it.
If I try just doing a wget on the file, I get pretty much the same thing:

It seems like it's trying to use a content type of text/html to get a zip file -- which is obviously wrong. But this is a new server, without any weird fancy configuration. Can someone suggest something? Thanks.
Update at 1158 ET: It seems there might be a host problem:
