in thread troubleshoot ppm error?

It is company firewall.

I'd strongly suggest that you ask your support guys for their assistance. Diagnosing this further by guesswork is pointless.

I can change it to http://ppm4.activestate.com from ( http://ppm4.activestate.com:80 )without mentioning port 80

By default, urls starting with http:// go to port 80 anyway, removing the ':80' won't change anything.

You could look at perldoc activeperl::ppm::profile and investigate further, but your tackling the problem from the wrong end.

    I have checked with our support guys.We have one proxy server without password and that can be used.I have tried with setting http_proxy environment variable.also referred all the documents related to this but no luck.Same issue.Not sure how to proceed further.

      If setting http_proxy as described in the reply here doesn't work, the only other suggestion I have is to try setting ACTIVEPERL_PPM_DEBUG true and see if that gives you or your support guys any more clues.

      Beyond that, I don't think that there is much anyone off-site is going to be able to do to help you. Sorry.

        Ok let me try what you have mentioned. I would like to know where should I change the value of ACTIVEPERL_PPM_DEBUG to true? Is there some config file?
