Mgabhi -- It appears that your configuration of CPAN is not working out. This may be due to your preferred servers being unreachable or incomplete, or perhaps you are not logged in as a privileged enough user. You can still download a given module manually from http://search.cpan.org. For example: http://search.cpan.org/~esummers/MARC-Charset-0.98/lib/MARC/Charset.pm <http://search.cpan.org/%7Eesummers/MARC-Charset-0.98/lib/MARC/Charset.pm> But to fix the underlying problem you should probably reconfigure the CPAN module. Use the command: perl -MCPAN -e shell That will open a CPAN shell. Then use "o conf" to view the current CPAN configuration and "o conf init" to change it. Pick your preferred list of CPAN mirrors to be systems that are reliable and responsive to you. You might also start with "upgrade CPAN", since the latest version appears to be only a week or two old. The connection attempts (some successful?) to 192.168.1.254:800 are confusing to me. That internal address is unlikely to be a correct destination. If you notice this in your list of preferred servers, remove it. --joe atzberger On 9/28/07, Mgabhi Sgombe <jamakamasali@gmail.com> wrote:

The module MARC isn't available on CPAN.
Either the module has not yet been uploaded to CPAN, or it is temporary unavailable. Please contact the author to find out more about the status. Try 'i MARC'. PDF::API2 is up to date.
