5 Can't find Template module - ID: 901246
Last Update: Comment added ( nobody )

Windows 2003
Installed ActivePerl-5.8.3.809-MSWin32-x86.msi
Setup Codestriker per docs
Installed missing Perl modules via PPM, BUT I can't
find "template"
I've installed every package that has "template" in the
name (177 of them), but the checksetup.pl still is
unhappy. Where can I get the "template" package?
Also, why are there no files in the CGI-BIN? Does the *-
base file get copied there from the checksetup process?
Once I get this working on IIS6, I'll let you know.

Checking for LWP::UserAgent (any) ok: found v2.023
Checking for CGI (v2.56) ok: found v3.01
Checking for CGI::Carp (any) ok: found v1.27
Checking for Net::SMTP (any) ok: found v2.26
Checking for DBI (v1.13) ok: found v1.39
Checking for IPC::Run (any) ok: found v0.77
Checking for Template (v2.06) not found
Checking for HTML::Entities (any) ok: found v1.27
Checking for File::Temp (any) ok: found v0.14


Codestriker requires some Perl modules which are either
missing
from your system, or the version on your system is too
old.
They can be installed by running (as root) the following:
perl -MCPAN -e 'install "Template"'
Minimum version required: 2.06

Yes, I need to update the documentation for Window systems.
For some weird reason, the Template module is not available
from the ActiveState PPM repository, however it is available
from the http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages
repository, which contains mod_perl stuff. Check out
the "Apache 1.X mod_perl" section of the manual, or
http://codestriker.sourceforge.net/x223.html#AEN243 for
changing your ppm command to point to this repository.

You may have to do a:

ppm> install Template-Toolkit

rather than just Template for this to work. I am not sure
why there is this descrepency in naming. I'll make sure the
manual is updated for the upcoming 1.8.0 release.

To answer your other question, the cgi-bin directory is
populated once checksetup.pl successfully completes.

Let me know if this fixes your problem.

I have run Codestriker under IIS successfully as a plain old
CGI script. I will also update the doco with how to do this
for the next release. You might need to modify the
codestriker_css configuration variable to the location of
your codestriker.css file (in the html subdirectory) for the
Codestriker CGI script to pick it up.

Cheers,
David
