This is more of a systems admin question. We have a perl app on a windows server with activeperl 5.8. I need to move the app to a new server. I have installed the same version of active perl on the new server and copied the web directories. But the app is failing because it does not have all the modules (or packages) installed that the app requires. I tried copying the whole perl directory from the old server to the new but that did not work. I quess the perl modules have to be installed and cannot simply be copied from one server to another? Is there an easier way to migrate a perl app from one server to another, perhaps a tool that helps with this? Or is there an easier way of seeing all the modules installed on the first so I can install them on the second. Thanks.
