bradcathey has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Fellow Monastians,
Tried to install CGI::Application::Plugin::Session on my Pair server today. Got the following error:
%perl Makefile.PL LIB=/usr/home/username/modules PREFIX=/usr/home/user +name/modules [Thu Dec 15 09:54:13 2005] Makefile.PL: Warning: prerequisite CGI::App +lication 3.21 not found. We have 3.1. [Thu Dec 15 09:54:13 2005] Makefile.PL: Warning: prerequisite CGI::Ses +sion 3.95 not found. We have 3.94. Writing Makefile for CGI::Application::Plugin::Session
Figured I needed to update two modules. So I installed CGI::Application 4.03 without problems. Then tried installing CGI::Session and got a bunch of errors that didn't help *me*. Read make test reports errors in Tutorials, perused the README's, and anything else I could find.
So I just went ahead and tried to install CGI::Application::Plugin::Session again. But I got the same exact error that it was missing the newer CGI::Application that I had just installed! Do I have to do something to point the the CGI::Application in *my* home directory?
Here's the complete report during Make test for CGI::Session:

We all encourage one another to tap the CPAN modules, I just wish the process of installing them was more reliable. Anyway, maybe I'll get better at troubleshooting these issues. Thanks!
