Anybody know what this is all about? I have installed the latest template module (2.0.8 I think)
I am trying to create a bar graph but it says that a module is missing.

Can't locate GD/Graph/bars.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386- linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux /usr/lib/pe rl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr /lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1 /usr/li b/perl5/vendor_perl .) at perlgraph.pl line 5.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at perlgraph.pl line 5.

Hi...

You might want to look at CPAN ...

CPAN - search for DG Graph bars.pm

My wild guess is that you'll have to install
GDGraph

HIH

Not sure what the deal is but I had the path ../perl5/5.6.1/site_perl/template/plugin/5.6.1....blah blah blah

Point is that the message I got stated all the paths and that isn't one of them so I copied the folder structure from GD/Graph down and put it in /perl5/5.6.1 and it works except now I have an error in my code somwhere. Here is the new error. I don't think it is realated.

Can't locate object method "new" via package "GD::Graph::bars" (perhaps you forg
ot to load "GD::Graph::bars"?) at perlgraph.pl line 15.

Any ideas what this is?

the best way to get CPAN perl modules is to use perl from command line
run it as root
perl -MCPAN -e shell
it will go for setting the things up with your interaction, and then when it's done help command comes handy to get around

To fix the problem where a module or it's components are found due to installation someplace other that where perl expects it to be, use the following line in your perl code:

use lib "path to your perl stoff";

That'll fix your problem and you won't have to (unsuccessfully) copy stuff all over your filesystem
