Apologies, I don't have the errors anymore. When I try doing install Compress::Zlib it says it's up to date, and if I force install all tests (aside from ones it skips) are successful. I'm really confused as to why I get Can't locate Compress/Zlib.pm in @INC after installing it with CPAN. I don't know how to remove modules installed with CPAN, otherwise I would reinstall them for the error messages.	[reply]

Download the tarball from search.cpan.org and do the usual `tar zxf Tarball-VERSION.tar.gz cd Tarball-VERSION perl Makefile.PL make make test` [download] followed by `make install` [download] if all the tests succeed (you can usually ignored skipped tests). Repeat the process for each module until something fails. Also, check the README files included with the modules - they usually contain installation tips.

Well, I did something pretty stupid. In my foolish attempt to 'uninstall' a cpan module I rm'd auto/Compress... I'm getting these root@linuxbox Compress-Zlib-2.005# perl Makefile.PL Up/Downgrade not needed. Warning: prerequisite IO::Compress::Base 2.005 not found. Warning: prerequisite IO::Compress::Base::Common 2.005 not found. Warning: prerequisite IO::Compress::Gzip 2.005 not found. Warning: prerequisite IO::Compress::Gzip::Constants 2.005 not found. Warning: prerequisite IO::Uncompress::Base 2.005 not found. Warning: prerequisite IO::Uncompress::Gunzip 2.005 not found. Writing Makefile for Compress::Zlib Can't locate auto/Compress/Zlib/autosplit.ix in @INC Is there a faster way to fix this, or did I just screw myself? Thank you for all the help so far.	[reply]

Sorry if this is a double post, but my post doesn't seem to be coming through. Obviously it's not my day :) Well, I did something pretty stupid.
