perl module installation trouble
Hey there.

I'm wondering if anyone can help me figure out what's going wrong when I try to install these perl modules.

I'm trying to install the following three modules:

Crypt::IDEA
Crypt::CBC
Net::SSLeay

Here's what I did:

1. Using telnet, logged into my web server and got a command line.
2. Gave the command:
Code:
perl -MCPAN -e shell

3. Received the prompt:
Code:
cpan>

4. Gave the command:
Code:
install Crypt::IDEA


Everytime I try to do this, I get a series of messages that I only vaguely understand, before I receive the message:

Quote:
Out of memory!
Attempt to free unreferenced scalar.
Lockfile removed.


I must confess, I have no idea whether this means the module was even installed or not. If not, what am I doing wrong? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
davidziel
