Subject: Failed to install Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog
I'm having trouble installing the Log::Dispatch::Win32EventLog mdoule. I'm running Perl 5.6.1 on Windows 2000 Advanced Server with Visual Studio 6.0. 1)running "perl makefile.PL" gives me the following error, which I fixed by manually creating the right directory structure: C:\temp\Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11.tar>perl makefile.pl Checking if your kit is complete... Warning: the following files are missing in your kit: lib/Log/Dispatch/Win32EventLog.pm t/01-basic.t t/02-register.t t/03-log4perl.t t/04-invalid_log.t Please inform the author.

What utility did you use to extract the archive? There is no problem with the directory structure in the archive. I confirmed this by Browsing the archive on CPAN, and I also downloaded the file and extracted it: Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11 Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/Build.PL Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/Changes Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/Makefile.PL Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/MANIFEST Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/META.yml Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/README Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/lib Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/lib/Log Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/lib/Log/Dispatch Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/lib/Log/Dispatch/Win32EventLog.pm Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/t Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/t/01-basic.t Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/t/02-register.t Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/t/03-log4perl.t Log-Dispatch-Win32EventLog-0.11/t/04-invalid_log.t Show quoted text

That is a much more critical issue, but may be related to Test::Harness (there are problems with some modules when tested on 5.8.4 but they work on earlier versions, for instance). You should submit the issue to ActiveState. Note that Log::Dispatch::Win32EventLog is Pure-Perl. There is no C code in it. Show quoted text
> t\01-basic..........ok
If this passes, then you have the basic features working properly. 02-register tests the new "source registration" feature. There may be some bugs to work out with this. Do you have Win32::EventLog::Message installed? Show quoted text

This is the first feedback I've gotten.
