Hello,

I asked this question, and other than one response (thanks Owen!), things have been pretty silent on this issue.

As I am a recent subscriber, maybe this is not the place to post this type of a request.

Is there a better place that someone might aim me to resolve this issue?

Thanks for any replies,

Jerry K

Hello Owen,

thank you for your reply. When I started over again, yes, I did remove .cpan .

I have set .cpan to 20 Mb. My .cpan/build directory was at 21 Mb. I cleaned that directory out.

I still get the "Out of memory!" error.

Guess 1.

Well presumeably you have removed .cpan and started again. My guess is
that is full. What did you set the default to, normally it is 10 megs.


Guess 2.

Do you have any quota limits on your cpu/memory usage? Probably not.
