Re^2: How to get site_perl directory

I have to copy a downloaded perl module which is related to IVR into this directory. But when I searched in machine it was not there. So how can I install that site_perl?

Thanks

Depends on what you mean by "downloaded." If that's "copied it whole from some other machine," the odds are against you: If it's a pure perl modules, you may have a shot, but even that's not guaranteed (because the module itself may have dependancies you don't have) See Yes, even you can use CPAN (by Tanktalus]) and holli's A guide to installing modules for Win32.

`mkdir '/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi'`, probably under root. However it is usually better to allow the `make install` install it there rather than to copy it. Why does it have to be in that particular directory?	[reply] [d/l] [select]
