CPAN: LWP::Parallel::UserAgent failing nmake test in DOS

[IlanaL]

Hi,

I am new to Perl and interested in using the BioDas::Lite package, which is
available from CPAN. This lists LWP:arallel::UserAgent as a dependency. I
downloaded ParallelUserAgent-2.57.tar from the CPAN site.

I tried running
perl Makefile.PL
nmake
nmake test

The tests are stuffing up. The first error message on the DOS screen (one
of many) is: 'pwd' is not recognized as an internal or external command.

The Readme says lib

http://www is

a dependency. PPM says I have installed lib

http://www-5.814

installed. (I have also installed
ActivePerl for Windows.) Some websites say I may need lib

http://www-5.76.

Others say v5.814 should be ok. In any case, CPAN only contains downloads back to 5.80.

Any help on how to get PArallelUserAgent to successfully complete the
tests?

Thanks,
Ilana

Did you check to see if LWP:arallel::UserAgent is available via PPM?

Thanks for the suggestion!

However, the exact package doesnt appear in my PPM under All Packages. I believe I need this one because BioDasLite (which is the package I really need) lists LWS:arallel::UserAgent as a dependency.

I also checked if it was available via PPM and did not find it. Unfortunately I don't know what else to suggest. Maybe ask on

http://www.perlmonks.com

and see if a member there can help.
