Re^2: Cannot install DBI

Looking at your link, some of the commands are invalid in my PPM...

For example, if I type "rep", I get "unknown command 'rep'".

Could it be my "PPM" is old/duff? It says (1.0.0) on starting up!?

Yes. My ppm (Perl 5.8.0) is version 3.1. What's your version of Perl? It must at least be 5.6 or older. holli, /regexed monk/	[reply] [d/l]

How can I see what version of perl it is? I'll download the latest version from activestate in the meantime and have a play...	[reply]

NeilF, 'How can I see what version of perl it is?' Type `perl -v` from the command line prints the version and patch level of your Perl executable, while `perl -V` prints a summary of the configuration values and the contents of @INC. Martin	[reply] [d/l] [select]
