Re: Using modules without admin privelagesby btrott (Parson) |

Yes. The easiest way is to add this to the top of your
Perl script that uses the module:
This will tell perl to look in /home/foo for modules. Another option is to use the -I flag on your #!/path/perl line: A final option is to set the PERL5LIB environment variable to the path. Personally, I'd recommend using the first option (use lib). If you're trying to *install* modules into your home directory, run Makefile.PL with the PREFIX option: And if you're using CPAN.pm, specify PREFIX=/home/foo as the argument to Makefile.PL in the configuration options when you first run the shell.
