What is it doing in a hierarchy labelled (a) html, (b) cgi-bin, and (c) Library? That's at best confusing. > SUN83-PRODWEB>perl Makefile.PL > LIB=/opt/common/html/billing/cgi-bin/Library > Writing Makefile for Class::Accessor People almost always use PREFIX instead of LIB. I see you tried that later. And you're trying to install to a parent of the directory holding your source. That's a bad idea. You're going to have a source directory stuck in your installation tree. At best that wastes lookup time. > SUN83-PRODWEB>/usr/ccs/bin/make Do you know that's the right make? You want to use the one that was used to build your perl. You could run into problems otherwise. > mkdir blib/lib: Permission denied at > /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.5/ExtUtils/Command.pm line 186 *** Error code > 255 > make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `blib/lib/Class/.exists' > SUN83-PRODWEB> So you don't have permission to write to the directory you're in. (You haven't even reached the installation step.) As Mumia W. suggested, use CPAN.pm in the local installation mode. Then these issues will disappear. -- Peter Scott http://www.perlmedic.com/ http://www.perldebugged.com/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
