Hello, I have uploaded my module Net::Netconf in cpan, but now I want to make some changes in some of the files as they are not behaving as expected. I am trying to make changes from "Edit Module Metadata" link, but its saying no module registered under my name. Kindly help me, how can I edit and upload modified file in cpan.
Also "Bundle::Expect" is one of the dependency of my module that I mentioned in Makefile.Pl along with other dependencies. But its giving error. Is there some problem with this module or I have to mention dependency somewhere else. My complete module is here http://search.cpan.org/search?mode=all&query=net%3A%3Anetconf Thank You, Regards Priyal Jain -----Original Message----- From: Priyal Jain Sent: Friday, May 02, 2014 10:27 AM To: David Golden Cc: netconf-support Subject: RE: Failed: PAUSE indexer report JPRIYAL/NET-NETCONF.zip Hello, Thank you so much for your help.

Kindly help me in selecting appropriate support-level option. You don't need to register the namespace. Namespace registration is in the process of being deprecated. Just document your support intent in your module documentation and upload your distribution. > Also I was trying to upload my module in CPAN without registering, but I got > below mail.

First, your distribution naming is not consistent with typical Perl conventions. For a module Foo::Bar with version 1.23, you would ship a tarball called Foo-Bar-1.23.tar.gz containing the directory Foo-Bar-1.23. That directory should contain your Makefile.PL, a lib directory containing your .pm files and so on. The error message you saw is because you uploaded NET-NETCONF and you don't have a NET::NETCONF package in your distribution. My suggestions: In your Makefile.PL, set the 'NAME' parameter to "Net-Netconf". Then, add lib/Net/Netconf.pm that contains the "package Net::Netconf" statement. That top-level .pm file will claim the Net::Netconf namespace for you and will allow you to upload a tarball starting with "Net-Netconf". It is also a good place to put introductory documentation, support information, etc. It doesn't have to have any real code. E.g.: package Net::Netconf; our $VERSION = '0.01'; 1; =head1 NAME Net::Netconf -- Netconf Perl client =head1 SYNOPSIS ... etc ... Then, use your Makefile.PL to generate your tarball for upload: perl Makefile.PL make make test make dist Looking at the Makefile.PL, I see some other things that might go awry, but I don''t have time to diagnose all of them for you. I suggest finding a good resource on shipping modules to CPAN and following the guidelines there. The latest edition of Intermediate Perl by brian d foy includes a very good chapter on the subject and I encourage you to read it. I hope this helps. Regards, David Golden PAUSE Admin for IDs
