I don't use perl Makefile.PL or dmake test Yes you do :) cpan call those commands after downloading the tarball It is the output of these commands that is important, and no, it won't be thousands of lines You don't have to post the whole output, you can read it, and find the first error message	[reply]

Hmmm, I'm usually quite good at finding strings in a text file ... The output I get has neither 'perl Makefile.PL' nor 'dmake test' in it. The only mention of Makefiles are right at the beginning: CPAN: CPAN::SQLite loaded ok (v0.199) Running install for module 'Tk' Running make for S/SR/SREZIC/Tk-804.030.tar.gz CPAN: Digest::SHA loaded ok (v5.61) CPAN: Compress::Zlib loaded ok (v2.034) Checksum for E:\Perl\cpan\sources\authors\id\S\SR\SREZIC\Tk-804.030.ta +r.gz ok CPAN: Archive::Tar loaded ok (v1.76) CPAN: File::Temp loaded ok (v0.22) CPAN: CPAN::Meta loaded ok (v2.110930) CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.73) CPAN.pm: Going to build S/SR/SREZIC/Tk-804.030.tar.gz E:\Perl\perl\bin\perl.exe is installed in E:\Perl\perl\lib okay Checking if your kit is complete...
