You could try to repeat the CPAN build process manually. Whenever CPAN build fails, I will chdir to ~/.cpan/build/<moudle> directory, then do a manual build under that directory by:

perl Makefile.PL
make | tee make.log
make test

This will always give me warm and fuzzy feeling that I am in control, and it will always give me (or enable me to find out) the precise reason of build failure. You may either need to 'sudo' the make process, or to reset the owner/group of your 'stuffed-by-sudo' CPAN build directories.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
