Win32/Daemon.pm ERROR.

[abc73]

Hi all,
I am pretty new to perl. I am using ActiveState perl, v5.8.6. I am trying to run a script but gets the following error:

Can't locate Win32/Daemon.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib C:/Perl/site/lib.)

So I believe I need to install Daemon.pm module. Can someone guide me where to get this module for this version of the perl and how to install it. Thanks for all the help.

I already did but still keeps getting the above error.

If you have ActiveState, you have ppm. Have you tried looking for it with ppm?

PPM install

Can someone please help how to manually install Daemon.pm. What are steps for installing manually. I tried the following

PPM install [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.roth.net/perl/packages/win32-daemon.ppd[/URL]

but I keep getting connection timeout. So I want to install it manually but how? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

use wget to get the file, and store it locally. Or, right click, save target as ...
then

ppm install Win32-Daemon.ppd

Should be all you need, and no timeout worries
