Problem installing Net::LDAP perlnewbie 09-22-2005

Hi,

I'm a total newbie with linux, trying to install Net::LDAP from CPAN
and getting the following error message:
make:*** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
/usr/bin/make -j3 -- NOT OK
Running make test
Can't test without successful make
Running make install
make had returned bad status, install seems impossible

I don't know where to go from here to figure out why this is not
installing properly. Any help is greatly appreciated.

A.

Looks like the 'perl Makefile.PL' step got skipped (or failed). Don't know
why that would be .... but it's the first thing that comes to mind that
would account for the absence of the makefile. It would help if you could
send the complete output, including the command(s) you entered.

I assume you're trying to install 'perl-ldap' ? (Net::LDAP is part of
perl-ldap and should not be installed separately.)

Cheers,
Rob

Rob,

Thanks for responding to my post.
I had tried to install Net::LDAP while being connected to CPAN using
the install command, I didn't realize I needed not install perl-ldap.
I looked up perl-ldap on CPAN and there are loads of diffrent modules.
Which one should I install? The bundle?

Anya

Yes - you want http://search.cpan.org/~gbarr/perl-ldap-0.33/
