Hi, I am trying to use this module to interact with Amazon's EC2. I downloaded this module (v 0.09) on v5.8.8 release 824 (ActiveState), but it just doesn't work. I've emailed the author, but have had no response. The code use Net::Amazon::EC2; statement in a script, by itself, generates the following: 
Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at C:/Perl/site/lib/C
+lass/MOP/Class.pm line 640.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/Moose/Object.pm 
+line 8.
Compilation failed in require at C:/Perl/site/lib/Moose.pm line 25.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/Moose.pm line 25
+.
Compilation failed in require at C:/Perl/site/lib/Net/Amazon/EC2.pm li
+ne 2.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/Net/Amazon/EC2.p
+m line 2.
Compilation failed in require at C:\MVM\tools\ec2.pl line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\MVM\tools\ec2.pl line 1.

Can anybody help me troubleshoot this? It appears to have a problem with Moose, but that's where my knowledge ends... tia, matt
