Hi Pat,
AFAIK, its not possible to install any perl module on a system that has perl installed in the usual system place, without having root access to the system. You will have to get with the system administrator to finish the install for you. The only way you could install it in your home directory is to install your own copy of perl in your home directory, then install your modules to that version of perl. But that will take up a lot of disk space, and if you have a quota, you will probably exceed it.

Hi I tried installing the DBI for perl and I noted the following problems,
all the make commands worked fine perl Makefile.PL command returned the following message
setting up the DBD
*** Note: The optional PlRPC-modules (RPC::PlServer etc) are not installed. If you want to use the DBD::Proxy driver and DBI::ProxyServer modules, then you'll need to install the RPC::PlServer, RPC::PlClient, Storable and Net::Daemon modules. The DBI CPAN Bundle may help you. You can install them any time after installing the DBI. You do *not* need these modules for typical DBI usage.
Optional modules are available from any CPAN mirror, in particular http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-module http://www.perl.org/CPAN/modules/by-module ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/modules/by-module
Writing Makefile for DBI
Remember to actually *read* the README file! Build, TEST and INSTALL Perl 5 first. Do NOT build the DBI under the Perl source tree. Use 'make test' to execute self tests. Use 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this working
make make test all worked fine
make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 returned Testing handle creation speed... 5000 NullP statement handles cycled in 1.8 cpu+sys seconds (2727 per sec)
test.pl done however the make install command returned error message for make install Warning: You do not have permissions to install into /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/alpha-dec_osf at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00502/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 61. mkdir /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/alpha-dec_osf/auto: No such file or directory at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00502/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 114 *** Exit 2 Stop.
I am installing the DBI in my local directory so is there any way of changing the installation path or is that what i need to do Perl 5.004.04 is currently installed
thanks Patr...@ucg.ie
