Hi,
i deleted the whole .cpan folder in my home (i'm root), and configured cpan again. Most of the questions i answered automatically, but i configured the urllist manually. I choosed only mirrors in germany (where i reside), and checked them against http://mirrors.cpan.org/.
I just choosed those which seem to be stable and recent.
But trying to install a newer version of CPAN fails again. With the same errors.
E.g. i get again:
# Reading '/root/.cpan/build/CPAN-2.10-U90C7G/t/CPAN/modules/02package
+s.details.txt'
# Database was generated on Tue, 03 Feb 1970 03:17:06 GMT
# Warning: This index file is 16794 days old.
# Please check the host you chose as your CPAN mirror for staleness.
# I'll continue but problems seem likely to happen.
Is this severe ?
Although i tried it three times from different mirrors, i always got this error.
Inside the mentioned file is:
Written-By: Id: mldistwatch 697 1970-01-18 07:33:13Z k
Line-Count: 19
Last-Updated: Tue, 03 Feb 1970 03:17:06 GMT
Also i got again:
# Failed test 'cmd[force test CPAN::Test::Dummy::Perl5::Make]'
# at t/31sessions.t line 560.
Several times per attempt.
Any ideas ?
Bernd
