Installing Modules on Wintel

[Barry Dancis <bdancis@comcast.net>]

Hi --

    I am trying to  install Class::DBI on a Wintel 2000 machine. When I try
to  install some of the required modules using CPAN, I get errors of the
sort:

cpan> install Class::WhiteHole
Running install for module Class::WhiteHole
Running make for M/MS/MSCHWERN/Class-WhiteHole-0.03.tar.gz
  Is already unwrapped into directory \.cpan\build\Class-WhiteHole-0.03
  Has already been processed within this session
Running make test
'test' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
   test -- NOT OK
Running make install
  make test had returned bad status, won't install without force


When I try to install the modules manually I get errors of the sort:

C:\.cpan\build\Time-Piece-1.08>..\nmake.exe

=\
"1.08\"  "-IC:\Perl\lib\CORE"   Piece.c
'cl' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program
or batch file.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x1'
Stop.


    Any suggestions (other than not using a Wintel Machine)?

Thanks,

Barry
