in reply to Re^3: Install Module with no admin permission
in thread Install Module with no admin permission

Tnx,The idea of installing local::lib is the have the option of installing module on private directory with non admin permission right? then all modules i want to install will be install under the same private directory? what do u mean copying the files of local::lib to their target destination? what is the their target destination ? As u suggest i tried lower version: 


[xxxx@illinxxxx local-lib-2.000014]$ perl -Mlocal::lib Makefile.PL

The issue is that its not clear for me what is require in order to have the ability to install private module as non admin- If install local::lib - cool, how? once i get local::lib installed - can install modules with their dependencies automatically into the private folder? can u please clear what do u mean by commenting PREREQ_PM with ExtUtils::MakeMaker? do u mean to replace strings of PREREQ_PM with ExtUtils::MakeMaker?

    In the file Makefile.PL, you find a line

          'ExtUtils::MakeMaker' => '7.00', # version INSTALL_BASE taken as
+ string, not shell

    [download]

    Try changing that line to

          #'ExtUtils::MakeMaker' => '7.00', # version INSTALL_BASE taken a
+s string, not shell

    [download]

    and then retry installing local::lib.
