Re^2: Modules install failure

[Perlchaoui]

Hello Corion

I did what you suggested but it still doesn't work unfortunately

Here the output in the console

cpan> install Text::CSV_XS
Running install for module 'Text::CSV_XS'
  HMBRAND/Text-CSV_XS-1.37.tgz
  Has already been unwrapped into directory C:\STRAWB~1\cpan\build\Tex
+t-CSV_XS-1.37-U49GBM
  HMBRAND/Text-CSV_XS-1.37.tgz
  Has already been prepared
  HMBRAND/Text-CSV_XS-1.37.tgz
  Could not make: Unknown error

Same issue when i want to install another module

What is going wrong ?!

Thanks again

Additionally to what the Windows guru's told you or suggested, I'd say to start clearing out your C:\STRAWB~1\cpan\build\ before re-trying anything.

That folder contains all your build efforts from cpan, including the FAIL'd ones.

Thank you Tux

It worked fine after that

Good day

[syphilis]

It worked fine after that

Okay - I'll bite.
Can someone explain to me the mechanism by which "it worked fine after that" ?
It's not clear to me what was going on there ... and I'm a little curious.

Tux ??

Cheers,

Hello Monastery

Is someone able to provide a kind of support for this concern. I have my PATH and my variables set correctly

Many thanks again

Something is really bad/weird with your setup.

From the above log, it looks as if (maybe) you have gcc installed, and the compilation of XML::Parser::Expat somewhat succeeded, but you can't load the DLLs.

This might be some weird group policies that prevent you(r programs, like Perl) from loading DLLs or maybe you don't have the appropriate DLLs. How did you (try to) install XML::Parser::Expat? And/or how did you install your current Perl? If you can restore from backup or install a really fresh Perl while wiping out all traces of this current state, my suggestion is that you do so.
