I did a Google search on the best way to do this, and came across this website: http://triopter.com/archive/how-to-install-perl-modules-on-mac-os-x-in-4-easy-steps/comment-page-1/#comment-51832 According to the instructions given on this site, the steps were as follows: 1.) Install Apple developer tools (Xcode) / command line tools 2.) Configure cpan with the following commands: ** sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell ** o conf init 3.) Upgrade cpan with the following command: ** sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN' 4.) Install the modules I need Unfortunately, I'm stuck on step 3. I executed the "sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN'" command which started the downloading/configuring/installing/testing process and I accepted the default values to every prompt along the way. However, when I got to this point, the process hanged: t/lock.t ............... 1/4 I've been waiting for about an hour but it's still stuck on "t/lock.t". Is this normal or is this some sort of bug? Please let me know. Thanks. -- Andrey Grinberg | Tech/Web Associate New America Media | 209 9th St, 2nd Floor, San Francisco, CA 94103 Cell: xxx-xxx-xxxx | Office: xxx-xxx-xxxx xxxx

Not normal. Next step is to find out to which test suite this test belongs. You should be able to interrupt the testing with ^C (press and hold down Control key and press C; maybe your console is configured such that you need to use the apple key instead of the control key). Then you should be able to scroll back to where the test suite began. There you should find output saying something similar to this: AUTHORID/Some-Module-3.14.tar.gz /usr/bin/make -- OK Running make test Once you know which package it is that has the hanging test you can focus further investigations on that package. Try reproducing the hanging test with the package name you found, say Show quoted text

cpan> test AUTHORID/Some-Module-3.14.tar.gz

When I run the 'install Bundle::CPAN' I see no lock.t test, so I cannot tell which package is to blame. Good luck, -- andreas
