Re: Install Module with no admin permission

[marto]

Your local::lib looks pretty old. Consider using cpanm over cpan, if you have local::lib configured it picks that up automatically: Where does this install modules to? Do I need root access?. It's also faster than cpan. For cpan:

cpan> o conf makepl_arg INSTALL_BASE=/home/username/perl
cpan> o conf commit

From perlfaq8 -> How do I keep my own module/library directory?.

Tnx,so if the local::lib is old one , how can i install a new one as private module where im not the admin? I tried to run the command and received:

[XXXX@illinXXXX ~/perl5]$ cpan>o conf makepl_arg INSTALL_BASE=/testuse
+rs/env/test/XXXX/perl5

Looks like a networking problem. Can you access this from the command line of the machine in question? If not then you need to speak to your sys/network admins. If you can you may still need their help to configure cpan, e.g. WORKING WITH CPAN.pm BEHIND FIREWALLS. FWIW cpanm has fewer dependancies. I work mainly offline using a cpan mirror created by minicpan, copied onto our clients network, with no internet access.

the machine i'm working on is very securied and no one will give internet access.. I must say it very frustrated i can't just download the modules put them in the folder do some Perl trick and thats it....:) why i cant just create the private folder with the modules i need without using the old one installed elsewhere? Is there some clear guide how to do it?
