Re^3: Problems locating modules

Maybe you have an old (or broken) installation of DateTime? At least DateTime 0.70 has these two lines:

use constant INFINITY     => ( 9**9**9 );
use constant NEG_INFINITY => -1 * ( 9**9**9 );

Also, why are you testing the Perl module/program through "swish" instead of trying to eliminate the irrelevant parts? I would start with perl -MDateTime::Infinity -e1 resp. perl -MDateTime -e1 and slowly work my way up the chain until things fail.

the swish3 index is what I am trying to get to work, so my approach was to continue to run it until I didn't get any errors. My Nodelet status is not without reason :) So, I ran: `perl -MDateTime -e1` No errors or output of any kind. I appear to be running DateTime 0.70 as mentioned `[root@host /usr/home/user]# cpan DateTime CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.25) Going to read '/home/user/.cpan/Metadata' Database was generated on Tue, 31 May 2011 09:28:15 GMT CPAN: Module::CoreList loaded ok (v2.49) DateTime is up to date (0.70).` [download] Now, when I check DateTime::Infinity, it's a different story `[root@host /usr/home/user]# perl -MDateTime::Infinity -e1 Can't locate DateTime/Infinity.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/l +ib/perl5/5.10.1/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1/mach /us +r/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/mach / +usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1 .). BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.` [download] Looking more, it seems I was maybe getting DateTime::Infinite and DateTime::Infinity confused, of which the later appears to not exist?
