RE: dns error or module error?

by jwilson@[EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Wilson) May 9, 2008 at 03:33 PM

Perl 5.8.5

The error isn't coming from a script - it's from the actual install
using cpan.

Really what I'm doing is installing IO::Socket::SSL.  Right into the
install, cpan recognizes I don't have Net::SSLeay, so it goes ahead and
installs it first, and that's when I get this error, I think during the
make test command.  I can publish the whole output if it helps...

Any

My first guess is that you have a bug in your script. Please would you
publish
it, and say what version of Perl you are using?

If you are certain that your program is OK then perhaps you need to
update the
modules that Net::SSLeay depends on. But I doubt if there is a problem
with
Socket itself, especially as it has compiled with no errors.

Finally, please tell us more about how you have installed the module.
Did you
use CPAN and get no errors from the test phase?

Take a look at

  perldoc perlmodinstall

and see if that helps.
