I am trying to install packages on NT 4.0 SP5\, using PDK 1.2.4 and ActivePerl521. The symptom looks as if perl wod try to open $PACKETNAME/.packlist/. as a file! here is the output from ppm​:

it's not as bad as it looks\, cause on my linux box everything works fine!-) Only thing to worry​: I did pay some bux for the activestate version while linux is free and betterX!-(

----------------------------------------------------------------- [Please enter your report here] I am trying to install packages on NT 4.0 SP5\, using PDK 1.2.4 and ActivePerl521. The symptom looks as if perl wod try to open $PACKETNAME/.packlist/. as a file! here is the output from ppm​:

[...]

Writing C​:\Perl\lib\auto\Image\Size\.packlist\. Error installing package 'Image-Size'​: Can't open file C​:\Perl\lib\auto\Image\Si ze\.packlist\.​: Permission denied at C​:/Perl/lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 144

It does indeed look as if '\\.' somehow got appended to the .packlist filename. It doesn't happen for me (with ActivePerl 522). I just reinstalled 521 to check if that one contained a botched PPM.pm\, but it also worked fine. I've looked at the source (/perl/site/lib/PPM.pm) and the relevant lines would be​:

| my $packlist = MM->catdir("$Config{installsitearch}/auto"\, split(/-/\, $current_package{'NAME'})\, ".packlist"); ... | if ($root ne $inst_root) { | if ($packlist =~ /\\lib\\(.*)/) { | $packlist = "$root\\lib\\$1"; | } ... | ExtUtils​::Install​::install({ | "read" => $packlist\, "write" => $packlist\,

I don't see how the suffix can get appended (yes\, I also looked at /perl/lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm). But then again\, the error doesn't happen on my system. Did you modify any of the files mentioned above?

The one thing I cannot test here at home is the network installer of the PDK (I cannot create share names here). Does the error also happen on a machine that doesn't have the PDK network installer installed?

Anyways\, the modules seemed to get installed ok; only the .packlist didn't get written. This makes it impossible to uninstall the packages via PPM but the modules should be normally useable.

Well\, you can always download the ActiveState version for free from the web. I assume you only paid for the PDK\, but then your Linux version didn't include that one for free either.
