larus has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello,
I'm a bit frustrated 'cause I have been trying to install modules on my new mac for a couple of days now. And with no success. I'm quite new to Perl and coming from Windows, so you'll probably understand what I'm talking. So, I have been trying commands from bash shell
I this is what I'm getting after all:~ > cpan cpan> install Spreadsheet::WriteExcel
What I'm doing wrong? What should I do? My intention is to learn more Perl, not to get involved with these kinds of problems (sic!). All you wise monks: can you give any support or help please?------------------------ snip -------------------------- Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for Parse::RecDescent -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible Running make for J/JM/JMCNAMARA/Spreadsheet-WriteExcel-2.25.tar.gz Is already unwrapped into directory /Users/larus/.cpan/build/Spreads +heet-WriteExcel-2.25 CPAN.pm: Going to build J/JM/JMCNAMARA/Spreadsheet-WriteExcel-2.25.t +ar.gz -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible -----------------------------------------------------------------
