Failed installing perl module

Bill Klish

Trying to install a custom perl module in TeamSite 6.5/Windows 2003 EE and getting the following using cpan

command executed: c:\iw-home\iw-perl\bin\cpan -i PadWalker

CPAN.pm: Going to build R/RO/ROBIN/PadWalker-0.10.tar.gz

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for PadWalker
-- OK
Running make test
'test' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
test -- NOT OK
Running make install
make test had returned bad status, won't install without force

I told it to autoconfigure itself since it was the first time running the command. I suspect based on the error that make is not found on the system. How can I reconfigure it? I downloaded nmake from microsoft's site (according to the directions on cpan's site).

What am I doing wrong?

Is the module linked w/ any C code? A lot of times you can just copy the pm's into the appropriate dirs and go from there.

I'm not sure where it lives on Windows - but on Unix - it's:

~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm - you can either edit it or remove it and have cpan re-create it for you.

Ok, I will sweep it back out, but how do I compile the .xs file for it. I don't have a c compiler or any other development software on the windows 2003 enterprise edition server. I downloaded nmake from microsoft's site, but nmake is looking for a file called cl.exe (msft c compiler). I don't want to download all the .net framework or sdk trials, etc. It makes it seem not worth it.

Any ideas?

It's your call as to what you do - personally I tend to use Cywin on my PC if I have to use a PC (fortunately I haven't had to use one very often recently)
