Re: [webmin-devel] Perl module problem

[Andrew K. <ak...@co...>]

I got the same message when attempting to fetch the prerequisite modules for
"AI::Categorizer". When I downloaded the modules independent of this module
they all downloaded and installed without error. Indeed perhaps there is a
problem with "WebService::CIA" and I may have been too quick in assuming 
they
are the same problem. Perhaps my server is running low on disk space when I
try to do a huge installation. I am not sure right now. Thanks.
