Bugzilla 2.20 installation help required


Hi,
I am trying to install bugzilla 2.20 on my machine which has Linux 2.6.9 EL installed on it.The machine is configured already as a CVS server. Here is what i did so far,

1.Downloaded the Bugzilla tar ball from sourceforge
2.Tested my machine for the presence of MySQL/PostgreSQL, Perl and Apache.(all tests sucessful!!)
3.ran the checksetup.pl script.

The checksetup script reported that a few modules are missing on my machine namely AppConfig,Date::Format,DBI,Template::Toolkit.

I tried downloading the bundle::bugzilla magic module. But it still reports the missing modules. Then i tried downloading and installing the modules seperately.But again the checksetup reports that these modules are missing and tries to connect to the net to download these modules(when i run the perl -MCPAN -e 'install "Appconfig"' command.)
However the ftp access to my ip is disabled for security issues.

I have even tried to download the latest version of Perl (5.8.8). But the problem persists.

I have now run out of ideas and still am unable to install bugzilla. Please tell me what to do.

You can search for these at http://search.cpan.org/ and download the .tar.gz files individually. Once you have the files, extract them with (for example) tar -zxpvf AppConfig-1.56.tar.gz and cd into the directory. Usually you just run the following:
Code:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
Any variations to this are usually in the README or INSTALL file that came with the .tar.gz file. I used this method instead of trying to download the bundle::bugzilla bundle and it works fine.
