    I'm not sure how people do this, but here's the inside on
    the sitepm.dir file.

    sitepm.dir file is a drop file that is created in each
    directory that stores executable scripts. Each script opens
    this file to see where its perl modules are stored.

    sitepm.dir files are created by the initial run of
    configure.pl .. but for some reason, some people have
    figured out a way to get around this ..

    If I remember correctly, there is also a file called:
    setpmdir.pl that when executed, creates sitepm.dir files
    based on setting in the config file.

    Well, don't worry. You only need to run setpmdir.pl to
    create these files.
    > But when I run that it says it can not find directory PWD.
    You need to edit path.pm manually. Configure should advise
    or edit path.pm.

    Install this way:

    1.) edit ./conf/path.pm
    change (16x) /home/http/os_allcommerce to your URI of
    os_allcommerce

    2.) start ./setpmdir.pl (for generating Sitepm.Dir)

    3.) start ./configure.pl
