When installing the DBI module through PPM3 in Perl 5.8.4.810
I get the following error:

Can't call method "ok" on an undefined value at
C:/Perl/site/lib/PPM/UI.pm line
881, <$__ANONIO__> line 17.

Any help would be appreciated.

On the very same version of ActiveState perl, I ran 'ppm install DBI' and it
worked fine:

Maybe the identical command will work for you, too.

Cheers,

The DBI module I downloaded originally may have been a bad build. I
downloaded a copy from CPAN and I received successful results.
