Re^2: How to get started with CPAN by maryfran (Novice) on Aug 25, 2005 at 18:32 UTC
I read holli's 'A Guide to Installing Modules for Win32'. My module doesn't install with ppm. The error message is "no suitable installation target for module Spreadsheet-ParseExcel" 1. I will have to make it manually, anyway, since it explicitly asks for an out of date module and I will have to change the version number of that module 2. This error message is consistent with the error messages I got when I attempted to install it manually. Those messages usually complained about not being able to create a directory. 3. I did install a repository -- created the directory and installed it with the ppm> rep command.	[reply]
