You should consult the PPM FAQ posted on ActiveState's web site, which answers this very question: http://velocity.activestate.com/docs/ActivePerl/faq/ActivePerl-faq2.html#repositories

While there will usually be people here that might be able to answer your question, we don't have a lot of (collective) experience with ActiveState installation issues. Mainly we deal with the programming language aspect of things.
