in reply to Missing some packages in my Activ Perl Installation

Use ppm - the Perl Package Manager. Each of the modules you mention is available from the default ActiveState repository.

    Thanks a lot, I have found Crypt::Rijndael package. How do i install this?

      What does 'found' mean? In ppm's GUI there should be either a yellow or grey box to the left of the module name. If the box is yellow the module is installed.

      If the box is grey right click on the module name and click install. The box ought get a little green circle with a + on it. Click the green right arrow toward the top right of the window.

        Im Sorry, I should ve been more explicit. When i tried to connect to the repository, the ppm said: cant connect, bad host. So i visited the CPAN PPM Repository and dowloaded the rijndael, dbd::mysql and date::manip packages to my PC myself. Now how do i use ppm to install these packages? Thanks in advance :)
