Running install for module 'RPC::PlServer'
Running make for M/MN/MNOONING/PlRPC/PlRPC-0.2020.tar.gz
Prepending /root/.cpan/build/Net-Daemon-Pj9rTe/blib/arch /root/.cpan/build/Net-Daemon-Pj9rTe/blib/lib to PERL5LIB for 'get'
Has already been unwrapped into directory /root/.cpan/build/PlRPC-OIl76J
Prepending /root/.cpan/build/Net-Daemon-Pj9rTe/blib/arch /root/.cpan/build/Net-Daemon-Pj9rTe/blib/lib to PERL5LIB for 'make'
Could not make: Unknown error
Prepending /root/.cpan/build/Net-Daemon-Pj9rTe/blib/arch /root/.cpan/build/Net-Daemon-Pj9rTe/blib/lib to PERL5LIB for 'test'
Running make test
Can't test without successful make
Running make install

First you will have to build Net-Daemon (-0.43)
Get Net-Daemon-0.43.tar.gz from CPAN and extract to your /home
to get the folder "Net-Daemon"
(It is not necessary (or recommended to use /root) for compiling)
Then the commands are 1) 'perl Makefile.PL' 2) 'make' 3) 'make test
4) su...# make install
And extract PlRPC-0.2001.tar.gz to get "PlRPC-0.2001"
..and the commands are the same as for Net-daemon.
This should work on any system with perl. (unless it's a very old redhat ??)
Seems you have some sort of makefile (unknown to me) to build all ??
thank you...
but i have another problem when i use 'install DBI' i have so many test skipped and finally i got this result. and DBI install is not ok. how can i solve it
make: *** [DBI] Error 1
TIMB/DBI-1.605.tar.gz
/usr/bin/make install install DBI -- NOT OK
Failed during this command:
TIMB/DBI-1.605.tar.gz : install NO

Rep:
Which distro are you using ?? Linux "name" and "version"
A very nice thing to do is adding this to your LQ profile.
Which version of perl are you using ??
Why not leave "the strange makefile" or method, you are using ?
The "standard way" shown in #2 probably works, and you cannot
do any install or anything else with a gzipped file, please
extract it first.
