When I run the perl script you gave me I get the message /etc/perl/XML/Simple.pm the first 20 lines of the file are as follows `package LWP::Simple; use strict; use vars qw($ua %loop_check $FULL_LWP @EXPORT @EXPORT_OK $VERSION); require Exporter; @EXPORT = qw(get head getprint getstore mirror); @EXPORT_OK = qw($ua); # I really hate this. I was a bad idea to do it in the first place. # Wonder how to get rid of it??? (It even makes LWP::Simple 7% slower # for trivial tests) use HTTP::Status; push(@EXPORT, @HTTP::Status::EXPORT); $VERSION = "5.810"; $FULL_LWP++ if grep {lc($_) eq "http_proxy"} keys %ENV;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Well, thats obviously wrong. XML::Simple is not LWP::Simple. I don't know how you got that result, but see A Guide to Installing Modules, download http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/G/GR/GRANTM/XML-Simple-2.18.tar.gz, tar -zxvf XML-Simple-2.18.tar.gz, cd XML-Simple-2.18, perl Makefile.PL, make test, make install	[reply]

I've tried to remove this file and re installed XML::Simple with no luck I've even tried as far as removing perl and re installing it with no luck. However i got another Linux box that I've installed perl on it today. after installing more than 10 dependancies on it I finally was able to get it to work on the new box, however removing it from the old one and re installing it still fails evertime.

I'm unable to remove the package LWP::Simple. however I was able to install the one you gave me, like I have tried to install XML::Simple many different times before and came up with the same error. When I pull up `perl -MCPAN -e shell` and type in "r" to pull the list of all installed modules I can't find the LWP or the XML::Simple anywhere in the list after it was installed. So, I'm half temppted to just reinstall my OS as a whole and start fresh since I can't seem to find where it keeps pointing to this file or how it was even created. When I do a `locate Simple.pm` I come up with this `/etc/perl/Simple.pm /etc/perl/XML/Simple.pm /root/.cpan/build/XML-Simple-2.18-6AUYLc/lib/XML/Simple.pm /root/XML-Simple-2.18/blib/lib/XML/Simple.pm /root/XML-Simple-2.18/lib/XML/Simple.pm /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/Filter/Simple.pm /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/Locale/Maketext/Simple.pm /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/Log/Message/Simple.pm /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/Pod/Simple.pm /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/Test/Simple.pm /usr/share/perl5/LWP/Simple.pm /usr/share/perl5/XML/Simple.pm` [download] I've checked all the files and the only one that's different is in the /usr/share/perl5/XML/Simple.pm	[reply] [d/l] [select]
