I'm using PPM to install the Win32 pm and it fails ERROR: 500 Cannot write to 'C:\temp\ppm-730g70/Win32-x86-multi-thread-5.8/Win32-0.34.tgz': No such file or directory I noticed that it's trying to download an older version .034 when .035 is available. Is there a way to force update PPM?

I get the same error when trying to install version Win32-0.38. If I download the .tar.gz file by hand and run 'perl Makefile.PL/make/make install', I get an error running 'make' that says "No target specified for C:\Perl\site\libConfig.pm" It looks like the Makefile being generated is missing a '\' in the install path. If I make the following changes to the Makefile, I can then run 'make' with no errors: 1. Add the line SHELL=cmd.exe as a constant at the beginning of the file. 2. Change the line CONFIGDEP = $(PERL_ARCHLIB)$(DFSEP)Config.pm $(PERL_INC)$(DFSEP)config.h to CONFIGDEP = $(PERL_ARCHLIB)$(DFSEP)\Config.pm $(PERL_INC)$(DFSEP)\config.h (add a '\' to each path) 3. Change the line XSUBPP = $(XSUBPPDIR)$(DFSEP)xsubpp to XSUBPP = $(XSUBPPDIR)$(DFSEP)\xsubpp (add a '\' to the path) A unified diff for patching your Makefile is below. So is this the same bug, or something separate? ------- --- Makefile.original 2008-07-24 07:56:09.890625000 -0600 +++ Makefile.fixed 2008-07-24 07:54:57.953125000 -0600 @@ -45,6 +45,7 @@ FULL_AR = VENDORARCHEXP = VENDORLIBEXP = +SHELL=cmd.exe # --- MakeMaker constants section: @@ -165,7 +166,7 @@ MAN3PODS = Win32.pm # Where is the Config information that we are using/depend on -CONFIGDEP = $(PERL_ARCHLIB)$(DFSEP)Config.pm $(PERL_INC)$(DFSEP)config.h +CONFIGDEP = $(PERL_ARCHLIB)$(DFSEP)\Config.pm $(PERL_INC)$(DFSEP)\config.h # Where to build things INST_LIBDIR = $(INST_LIB) @@ -203,7 +204,7 @@ # --- MakeMaker tool_xsubpp section: XSUBPPDIR = C:\Perl\lib\ExtUtils -XSUBPP = $(XSUBPPDIR)$(DFSEP)xsubpp +XSUBPP = $(XSUBPPDIR)$(DFSEP)\xsubpp XSUBPPRUN = $(PERLRUN) $(XSUBPP) XSPROTOARG = XSUBPPDEPS = C:\Perl\lib\ExtUtils\typemap $(XSUBPP)

I see this bug has also been reported to ActiveState, but has been unaddressed for some time - http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=76541
