There is even a pre-built Eclipse package. You can also get a decent Perl that runs right under Windows. Either ActivePerl or Strawberry Perl. Either one will work although many Unix heads prefer Strawberry Perl because it comes with the same MIGW environment that Cygwin has and many feel it's more compatible with the Unix Perl brethren. Unfortunately, the module you want isn't available via PPM. It doesn't appear to be part of the cygwin perl install, and I don't want to spend 5 days learning the world of perl and cpan and perl configuration.
Installing from CPAN is really quite simple. The first time you run CPAN, it should pretty much configure itself. So, this isn't a Windows problem as much as a problem with this module.
It is fairly old, and might not work well in newer versions of Perl. You might have to force the install over test's objections. Maybe you can use one of the already installed IO modules that come with Perl instead. That'll save you a boatload of trouble because the required modules are part of Perl's existing package. Despite Cygwin's "problems," I use it regularly whenever I have to use Windows.
I would recommend first installing a separate installation of Perl using perlbrew so that you won't interfere with Cygwin's copy of Perl in case something bad happens since Cygwin does not enforce root-user policy. In cygwin shell, type. This should walk through the installation for perlbrew and set it up in one of your executable path.
Next type. Wait a bit while a mint Perl is compiled. For unknown reason, Perl can only pass My experience is that it mostly have something to do with handling of device files, like ports and pipes.
I am unaware of people trying to resolve the issue as it seems like a Cygwin problem. Although it has not presented much problem for me with general system and web programming tasks. The module testing routines will fail if any problem exists so I am not fretting over it. You can even install from your local directory instead of CPAN. I used local:lib as Cygwin doesn't support sudo.

Join Date: Jul CPAN goes through the process but nothing happens, sample perl scripts can not find the Expect Module. CPAN install seemed to find all of the modules needed gzip, tar, unzip,make,lynx,wget,ncftp,gpg,less etc.
PL" returned false. Join Date: Sep Sounds like the CPAN module or external tools like gzip doesn't enjoy folder names with intervening spaces, and is therefore confused!
Try to set your CPAN build directory to a path with no intervening spaces, and try again. You ought to be able to use the "o conf" command in CPAN to do this: e. If you change any of these, you will need an "o conf commit" before you terminate the CPAN shell to save the change. Read the CPAN manpage if in doubt.
How to automatically install all modules required by a script from CPAN? Having a script. Something like "emerge -uDNav world" for the perl?
Shell Programming and Scripting. Both have the Download links that we won't click on. Also, in normal circumstances, the cpan client is expecting the full name of the module, not one part of the name, and not the name of the zip-file. So cpan Path or cpan Tiny will attempt to install different modules. One called Path, the other one called Tiny. Please note, this too is case sensitive!
It can also be out-of date carrying older versions of the modules. GitPerl TBD. Cygwin Perl TBD. If you don't have root rights, you could ask your system administrator to do it on your behalf. Apparently there is a nice way to find out if a Perl module is on Debian or Ubuntu.
To install for the system-perl as root you can use either aptitude or apt-get depending on your personal preferences. The subtle difference is that the former installs the named RPM whereas the second installs the RPM that provides the named Perl module. So if you would like to install the Path::Tiny module then the second command is actually the better one.
