[log4perl-devel] Install on Windows2000/Active State 5.8

[Pascal L. <PLa...@Ko...>]

G'day,

I just installed Active State Perl 5.8. on Windows 2000 (Service Pack 2).
I tried to install the package, via PPM, as described in:

http://search.cpan.org/author/MSCHILLI/Log-Log4perl-0.26/lib/Log/Log4perl/FA
Q.pm

I was successful when installing Log::Log4perl with the ActiveState Perl
5.6, using the same command:
	ppm install "http://log4perl.sourceforge.net/ppm/Log-Log4perl.ppd"

Did I missed something? Or is it a problem with the PPD file?  Or my default
repository? Or ???

In fact, it got the message:
C:\>ppm install "http://log4perl.sourceforge.net/ppm/Log-Log4perl.ppd"
>install.txt
Error: Package 'Log-Dispatch' not found on server. Please 'search'
for it first.

However, FileSpec was installed correctly (see install.txt).

Did you already encountered this problem?

Thanks a lot!  I would gladly send you any information that you required if
need be.

ActiveState Perl 5.8 is a pain. Not only did they change the PPM format 
(which we took care for by providing 
http://log4perl.sourceforge.net/ppm/Log-Log4perl-58.ppd), but they also 
scraped the Log::Dispatch module (which Log::Log4perl uses) from the 
standard ActiveState repository.

Think what I'm gonna do next weekend is package some version of 
everything up in one tarball for those poor ActiveState 5.8 users to 
download. Until then, the above mentioned PPD will let you install 
Log::Log4perl, maybe you can download Log::Dispatch and its dependencies 
from CPAN (or another repository) and install them via "nmake Makefile.PL".

Sorry about the inconvenience ...
