XML::Writer perl module error

Hello,

I am trying to write to xml file using CPAN perl module XML::Writer , but I am getting below error.

Root cause:
Can't locate XML/Writer.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Interwoven/TeamSite/iw-perl/lib C:/Interwoven/TeamSite/iw-perl/site/lib C:\Interwoven\TeamSite\iw-perl\vendor\lib .) at C:\Interwoven\TeamSite\httpd\iw-bin\browseDisclosure.IPL line 3. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Interwoven\TeamSite\httpd\iw-bin\browseDisclosure.IPL line 3.

I copied Writer.pm file to all the locations referred for @INC, but still I am seeing the same issue. Anyone know if there is other way to write to xml file or how can I fix the above issue.

Thanks,

Niraj

Copying a PM does not always work. You should run

cpan XML::Writer

As Root/Admin

Use cpan in TeamSite/iw-perl/bin

Rick Poulin

The file should be placed in TeamSite/iw-perl/site/lib/XML/Writer.pm

But as nipper said, you should install it through the cpan program because many modules must be compiled for your platform first, and almost all have additional dependencies that you may have missed.

Also, you might consider using one of the modules already shipped with TS instead.. such as XML: Smiley Very Happy OM or XML::XPath.

Thanks for the reply Andy!

I am getting below error. Have you encountered it before?

There's a new CPAN.pm version (v2.00) available!

You might want to try
install Bundle::CPAN
reload cpan
without quitting the current session. It should be a seamless upgrade
