What's going on at indexdata.com?
I've been trying to install Net::Z3950::ZOOM on a couple of different machines, one for Koha, and have been getting the following for several days: # Failed test 'connection to 'test.indexdata.com:2118' refused (10000)' I can force the install. Also 'IRSpy Find a target' at http://targettest.indexdata.com/find.html is giving me: Proxy Error The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. The proxy server could not handle the request GET /find.html. Reason: DNS lookup failure for: irspy.indexdata.com -- Bob

We are still in the process of moving offices, and in that connection we cleaned up some old machines that were not (supposed to be) used. test.indexdata.com is officially dead. We must have forgotten that it was used in the perl module tests. We will point those to some other target in the next release.
Also 'IRSpy Find a target' at http://targettest.indexdata.com/find.html is giving me:
Proxy Error

We also had some problems with the DNS for the indexdata.com domain. Looks like some of the problems persist on the machine that runs the targettest. I will look into this. Sorry about the confusion the move has caused. And thank you for reporting the problems. Best regards Heikki Levanto -- Heikki Levanto heikki at indexdata dot dk "In Murphy We Turst"

I would suggest making any tests that require network access optional if that's practical. This issue has come up a few times in the past and is especially difficult for folks that don't have a lot of CPAN experience.
Cheers, Josh

Not easy to do: the standard CPAN sequence is just: perl Makefile.PL make make test sudo make install If we change that so that people have to do by-hand configuration before "make test", then, realistically, they just won't do it. So 99% of the time, this will be done in the default way, and we therefore need to pick the best way as the default way. We won't be moving offices again for a while, anyway :-) _/|_ ___________________________________________________________________ /o ) \/ Mike Taylor <mike@indexdata.com> http://www.miketaylor.org.uk )_v__/\ "Stand and deliver ...
