in reply to Installing File::find module

Hi Monks, I have replaced the Find.pm file with the correct file and noticed that the problem still persists. Hence I think I need to reinstall the File::Find module itself, rather than just replacing the Find.pm file. Please advice me on how do I proceed with installing the module alone.As suggested by sasikumar I have tried with perl -MCPAN -e 'shell' since mine is a hp-ux box. But It throws me a message as follows: "cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.61) ReadLine support available (try 'install Bundle::CPAN')" And as said earlier CPAN site gives me the entire perl5.8 package when I searched for File::Find module alone. Please shed some light....

    What problem? I have a feeling there is no "problem" and that you're just doing something foolish.

    Read perlmodinstall.

    File::Find comes with perl, so just reinstall perl.
