Can't install it via CPAN, strange.

    I'm sure you got more information other than "Can't install". Perhaps if you tell us what cpan actually told you we'd be able to help.

      The info I got was:
      cpan5> install SOAP::Simple
      Warning: Cannot install SOAP::Simple, don't know what it is.
      Try the command

      i /SOAP::Simple/

      to find objects with matching identifiers.


      I got some additional info the first time I ran it, but unfortunately I didn't save that. The displayed summary showed the above, though.

        It's a developer release, see question 12 from the CPAN FAQ.

      It almost worked, but XML::Compile::SOAP is causing problems:

      you can disable it by entering the following commands on the prompt:

        Sometimes, reading the output before posting it helps:

        looking for -lxml2... no
looking for -llibxml2... libxml2 not found
Try setting LIBS and INC values on the command line
Or get libxml2 from
http://xmlsoft.org/
If you install via RPMs, make sure you also install the -devel
RPMs, as this is where the headers (.h files) are.

        Did you install libxml2?

        You need to read what CPAN is telling you and ensure you install any prerequisites for modules/dependencies.
