Sys::MemInfo definitely exists on cpan and should be installable.  Did any 
other modules fail?  What happens when you execute "cpanm Sys::MemInfo" 
directly from the command line?

I already had to get cpanm manually because the install script could not 
retrieve it. Command "cpanm Sys::MemInfo" does not work (no result). Should a 
special network port be open to get modules from CPAN (I am at office so behind 
a FW) ?

No, there's nothing special, it uses port 80 to make a standard HTTP 
connection.  Do you have a web proxy that needs to be configured on the box?  
You need to set http_proxy/https_proxy environment variables.

Sorry for the delay, many things to manage at office... I have set http_proxy, 
https_proxy and ftp_proxy and I still get error messages like "! Finding 
Sys::MemInfo on cpanmetadb failed." during "build_node_perl" function 
execution. The message appears almost 1 hour after I have launched install 
script...

I have set SVN environment variables in "/etc/subversion/servers" and the 
install script now runs fine (at least CPAN modules download succeeds)... I do 
not understand the link with cpanm but I do not have time either to 
investigate. Thanks for your help, you can close the case.

Hm, don't know why the proxy settings for SVN would affect cpanm installs, but 
glad to hear it's working.
