Re^7: Missing module perl

[Corion]

Can't connect to localhost:80 (Connection refused)

This means that there is no web server listening on localhost:80. Have you checked with your browser that you can connect to http://localhost:80? Is the web server process running?

My suggestion is to eliminate the web server from the problem, by using file:// URLs instead of http:// URLs. If you want to make your local mirror available to more than one machine, using http as protocol is better, but then you will first need to configure the HTTP server appropriately.

Configuring your HTTP server is not really a Perl problem.

Maybe you can use CPAN::Mini::Webserver as your CPAN web server, but I have never done that.

if i access http://localhost:80 isn't connect, but if i set http://my-ip-addres-vbox is work.

I set file:// in urllist in cpan development ?

[Corion]

Yes, you use file:// where you would otherwise use http://.

If you see your CPAN mirror using http://my-ip-addres-vbox in the browser, then the web server configuration you've shown does not match the actual configuration:

<VirtualHost localhost:80>

This means that the web server will only run in your virtual box and only listen to the localhost interface there.

Do you want to make the CPAN mirror available within that virtual box, or to machines outside of that virtual box? If you want to make it available outside of that virtual box, file:// will not work. Then you will need to use http://, but the web server configuration you've shown does not look as if the web server (or rather, the CPAN mirror part of that webserver) would be reachable from outside that virtual box.

[ridwan]

so, what do I need to set in the web server configuration to be accessed virtual host?
