in reply to perl module problem

How did you install Module::Build::Version? It requires a C-compiler to do. Did the install of Module::Build::Version finish without errors?

When you copied version.pm, did you also copy Version::vxs.pm and all the files in the lib\site\auto\version\vxs-folder?

    First i want to tell u about the steps what i have taken to install perl and modules.

    1. Download the activeperl5.8.8.817MSwin32-x86-257965.
    2. Runt it and got installed it on my system.
    3. then i download the kinosearch0.12 and do this :- perl Build.pl then got error can't locate module::build.
    4. to remove that error i did following(suggested at install all perl module)
      C:/>ppm s Module-Build searching in active repository 1.Module-Build [0.2801] Module-Build 2.Module-Build-Convert [0.21] Module-Build-Convert 3.Module-Build-JSAN [0.01] module-Build-JSAN ppm> i 1 install 'Module-Build' Version 0.2801 in ActivePerl 5.8.8.817.

    hence it install it. Again i run

    c:/kinosearch-0.12>perl Build.pl

    then it inform me to install

    1. Lingua-StopWords
    2. Lingua-Stem-Snowball
    3. Clone

    I installed it with the help of PPM

    now again

    C:/kinosearch-0.12>perl Build.pl

    it created new Build and wrote all files in src but gave one warning and that is..

    Warning: this distribution contains XS files,but Module::Build is not +configured with C_support at C:/per/site/lib/module/build/base.pm lin +e 1125.

    now i want to resolve this prob.. plz help me to resolve it..

    Thanks

      Do you have a C-compiler installed and configured on your system?

      Update: I saw your answer in another part of this thread and you have a C-complier installed. Still it is much easier to install the modules which need to be compiled by using ppm
