Hi,

Looks like your server is missing the Time/Local.pm perl module.

Ask your host to install it for you.

Paul,

Look at the error messag again...

Perl Version : 5.003

Links 2.0 and other Gossamer Threads scripts requires minimally that people have Perl 5.004, and for some of the scripts, 5.0053 installed.

Therefore, cggetinfo, you need to contact your hosting company and ask them to upgrade to Perl 5.0053.

Regards,

Eliot Lee

Sorry - my fault.

I also gave a second stupid answer by asking him to use

perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN'

....which obviously he can't do without CPAN - duh.
