I tried the install, and can't find it on PPM version 4.01 with ActivePerl 5.8.8.822: `WARNING: Can't find any package that provide Crypt-SSLeay for Finance-Quote` Is there a way to tell PPM where to find it? `Software speaks in tongues of man; I debug, therefore I code.`	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Ah. Forgot about that. You'll need to add `http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/` as a repository source. ActiveState doesn't have a permit to distribute them. -- meraxes	[reply] [d/l]

Could you please confirm your PPM. I am employing EngInSite PPM.	[reply]

I confess to not knowing anything about EngInSite but it's a development environment, not your installation of Perl. It It doesn't come with it's own Perl interpreter so from the sound of what you're saying it's running ActiveStates `ppm` behind the scenes with the `force` option to ignore a dependency check. You can try opening a shell window (DOS-like environment by going to Start-> My Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt) and try the following two commands: `ppm repo add http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/ ppm install Crypt-SSLeay` [download] See if that fixes you up. You may want to try re-installing the Finance::* modules after that to see if that's resolved the problem. -- meraxes	[reply] [d/l] [select]
